I think I agree with pretty much everything you said Scratch, yet I'm one of those "anything but running" types.
I say find MANY things you will love or enjoy doing for many years. I mix up my exercise very much. This morning it was 45 minutes of snow shoveling and parking far from my office, knowing I'll make that walk 4 times today counting lunch.
I got a bunch of free or nearly free exercise gear thru
Craigslist so I do cardio most everyday and strength training every 2 days. For cardio I use a regular exercise bike, a recumbent exercise bike, a stair stepper, and an elliptical. I golf, snowboard, shovel snow, hike, chop wood, etc. etc. Variety works for me.
Find ways to sneak it it - combine exercise with other things. Set some goals, write them down.
Learn to hate sitting still for too long.
