Yes! Great to hear you've found something that effectively distracts you from getting fit! For me it has always been adventure sport - I grew up having to distract myself with skateboards, climbing, mountain bikes, surfing, etc to keep myself healthy, because just running for the sake of it was awful!

Our take on this is that - like your experience with VR - there is a way to make exercise fun, and therefore distract you from the work you're having to do during it.

Out of interest do you own a VR headset currently?

I don't own one right now. Thinking about an Oculus Quest for Beat Saber or the HP Reverb G2 for Flight Simulator. Obviously the first is better for exercise.
