a Weather conditions: Precipitation; measured as mm, Temperature; measured as °C, Wind; measured as m·s−1.

b Overall PA: triaxial counts·min-1 (mean per hour).

c CRF categories: CRF measured as VO2peak (mL·kg-1·min-1) and categorized into unfit (25% lowest), moderately fit (50% medium) and highly fit (25% highest) individuals.

CRF: Cardiorespiratory fitness. PA: Physical activity.
