@KayB55 "putting some changes in place for my life over the next cycle" sounds great. Well done. I love walking and have always walked lots. Throughout chemo last year I walked at least 45 mins most days except the bad ones, (and even when hospitalised with infections, walked the corridors with my drip trolley), and it was a boost to my wellbeing in many ways. It sounds as though you don't have a safe walking path near where you live, which is a shame. I understand your hesitance about sunburn, bites etc. Shopping centre circuits are shaded but are not a good idea because of the risk of catching infections from the masses. A gym treadmill is certainly an option - though expensive and uninspiring - and there are still other people's germs. Could you walk early morning before it gets too hot, wear sunscreen & protective clothes, on the footpaths just around your local streets?
