my forward plans after we come out of lockdown are
1) join a ramblers club - i love walking and being outdoors, i already signed up before lockdown but didn't manage any walks as they all got cancelled.
Get involved now! They are probably hosting online meetings. Do not wait until after lockdown.

Do they televise these? Why wait until after lockdown?

Why not order one of those training things that turns your road bike into a stationary bike? Start training now!

I thought dog walking was an exception to the lockdown? Maybe not with D, but do it without her for now.

Isn't she learning virtually right now? Why would this be stopped by lockdown?

Again, no need to wait for the lockdown for this.

Take this off the list. There will be a point in time where this happens, no need to list it here.
mark, I am detecting excuses here. "I would do this but lockdown...." Where there is a will there is a way. mark. we LBSs are notorious for sitting around and stewing on our sitch. Most of the above you can still do, maybe a little differently (like riding the bike on a stationary mount, etc).
Get up and get moving!
