Elly McGuinness encourages readers to embrace the benefits of outdoor fitness, emphasizing how activities like hiking, biking, and playing can boost physical health and mental well-being.

Quotes to ponder:

"Being cooped up at a desk, driving to and from work, the shops, or the gym, and generally spending time indoors can take up most of the waking hours for many people."

"Sunshine is the most effective way for your body to get [Vitamin D]. You need it for calcium absorption and in turn strong, healthy bones."

"There is no such thing as ‘bad weather‘, just inappropriate clothing. So splash in those puddles, let the rain refresh you, and enjoy the wind through your hair."
