For adventure enthusiasts, haze season tends to result in serious cabin fever since we can’t venture outdoors. And parents are also probably pulling their hair trying to find ways to expend the excess energy of their children. Even though we seem to be getting sporadic periods of clear skies, the burning has yet to stop in Indonesia. Every time the winds blows the “wrong way”, we are shrouded in toxic smog.

As air quality deteriorates, exercising outdoors can become more detrimental than beneficial.
