    Most are retired or have young kids. I am mid-career with no kids.

    There are a lot of 1st - 3rd generation Indian and Pakistani Americans in the neighborhood. They are good at cricket and I am not, though that doesn’t stop me from joining in the occasional pickup game.

    I go running in boring sweats and tees. I haven’t invested in “athleisure” leggings and whatnot; I don’t think I standout as a particularly fit or fashionable person. Neighbors frequently comment on how much exercising I seem to do. Which once they pointed it out, I don’t ever notice any of my neighbors exercising outdoors like I do. Unsure if they exercise indoors, at some gym somewhere, or just don’t at all.

      or just don’t at all

      I would wager it’s this one. I found that folks who noticed my activity levels tended not to be active themselves so it stood out to them.
