There’s even a runner’s high, with a whopping 88 per cent saying watching sport with others gives them an energy boost. The summer of sport, isn’t even over, and over half of Brits feel inspired to exercise more, with most choosing to work out at home while streaming workouts or using fitness apps, equipment, and trackers.
