The only sport left for the masses is commuting, which is a violent sport akin to rugby. It involves running in stairs, forcing your way into a crammed underground carriage, holding your breath until your sweaty neighbor gets down, arching over your bag so it doesn't get stolen. Not very rewarding, I admit, but a daily routine that keeps you in good shape.
Sports
Parisians don't do sports. The city center has about 3 million people, and 20 pools, which are open during so stringent hours it's almost a challenge to swim. The same goes for nearly all public equipments. Some thrill-seekers have picked up running, but with traffic and pollution, it is more likely to degrade health and shorten life expectancy.
