I finally ditched my gym membership for the park near my apartment

I was paying $45 a month for a place I only used the treadmill at. My friend in Denver told me she just runs outside and uses the free fitness equipment at her local park. I switched to doing that three months ago and already saved $135. Anyone else make a switch from a paid service to a free local resource that actually worked out?

@thea246 said the weather's fine, then moved to Denver where it snows in July.

Honestly, how do you deal with bad weather days though? Tbh I tried that and ended up back at the gym just for the consistency.

Bad weather's just a few days a year though, right? I just skip the run and do some bodyweight stuff at home. It's not like missing one workout ruins everything.
