Hiking and jogging

Hiking and jogging are interactions that a Sim can unlock by gaining enthusiasm in the Nature and Fitness hobbies, respectively.

The player can tell a Sim to "Go Hiking" or "Go Jogging" by clicking on that Sim. The player can then decide which, if any, other Sims in the household will go along. The Sims who are going hiking or jogging will the lot for about one Sim hour.

Hiking
Hiking is unlocked through the hobby "Nature". Sims who have a high hobby level in nature will want to Go Hiking.

On a hike, a number of things can happen. A hiking Sim might find a nice bit of something, get a bug to put in is or her collection, or meeting a new Sim or pet. On the other hand, a hiking Sim might get into poison ivy, or even be attacked by bees.

Jogging
Jogging is unlocked by having enough enthusiasm in the Fitness hobby. If Seasons is installed, jogging will raise a Sim's temperature. Sims can get sunburned if they go jogging when it's very hot.

Walkbys are sometimes seen jogging in the front of the house. If the walkby is a neighbor who owns a dog, the dog will jog along. Werewolves will be seen jogging only at midnight.

Jogging is also an Athletic ability in The Sims 3.
