As an aside, isn't it ironic that as kids, exercise was play and as adults its "working out"?

The Norwegian philosopher and mountaineer Arne Naess was once asked how it came that he took up climbing. I never did, he answered. It's just that most grown up people stop climbing...
I think he stayed true to that, within his capabilities, until he died earlier this year 96 years old.

Children and grown ups can all play and stay both fit and happy. "All work and no play makes xxx a dull boy."
