Olahraga Produktif



Di pagi hari, sering kali saya melihat orang-orang berolahraga di jalanan depan warnet dan depan kos. Jogging, jalan santai, bersepeda (gowes katanya orang Bantul), atau lari sambil dituntun seekor anjing. Anak-anak, ibu-ibu, bahkan kakek-kakek juga ada. Kaos oblong, singlet, seragam olahraga dan semacamnya ikut memeriahkan balutan 'busana' yang mereka pakai. Sambil ngobrol, senyam-senyum, dan ketawa-ketiwi, benar-benar suasana yang bagus untuk kesehatan rohani dan jasmani, hal ini akan semakin semarak jika memasuki akhir pekan.
