#4: There's Lots To Do Outdoors
As a New Yorker, I am used to it being warm for half the year and cold for the year. This makes it difficult to stay in shape year-round, unless you maintain a gym membership -- or do DDP YOGA -- beyond eating right.
According National Centers For Environmental Information -- formerly the National Climinatic Data Center -- the average high temperature during the winter months of the year is still in the 50s on the Fahrenheit scale. In turn, with some smart layering, you can still cycle, jog and do the needed exercises to maintain peak physical fitness.
During my trip to Greenville, I had the pleasure of riding the full Prisma Health Swamp Rabbit Trail. A 22-mile multi-use trail that has received a multitude of awards, Swamp Rabbit has been called "#1 America’s Best Urban Bike Paths" by Fodor’s Travel, "#3 Best Urban Trail" by USA Today's 10Best series, and "#12 Most Incredible Bike Trail in the U.S." by The Daily Burn.
In addition to the Swamp Rabbit Trail, Greenville also has the Falls Park (including the Liberty Bridge), Cleveland Park (a 122-acre space created in 1922), Legacy Park (around 20 acres), Unity Park (around 60 acres on the city's west side), and McPherson Park (which includes a mini-golf course). Overall, over 700 acres of land is dedicated to parks within Greenville.
