How Jogging Became Nepal’s Go-To Fitness Habit

When the COVID-19 lockdown hit, it brought the world to a standstill. Streets emptied, gyms closed, and people found themselves confined to their homes. For many in Nepal, jogging became a way to escape boredom, clear the mind, and stay active during a time when health was more critical than ever.

The Lockdown Effect on Fitness Habits

• Reevaluating Health: With time to reflect, people realized how much they’d neglected their fitness. Jogging offered an easy way to start afresh.
• Quiet Streets: Without the usual crowds and chaos, jogging in Nepal’s cities became a serene experience, drawing even those who had never tried it before.
• Building Habits: What began as a lockdown pastime turned into a lifestyle for many Nepalese who continue to jog today.
