Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The purpose of this study is to assess feasibility and acceptability for a trial to evaluate exercise behaviors, fatigue and exercise motivation in adolescent and young adult survivors of childhood cancer who participate in an outdoor exercise intervention compared to survivors who participate in an indoor exercise intervention. A pilot randomized cross over design will allow participants to be compared to traditional controls as well as self-controls.
