Yep! The Stetson children are jogging to Idaho. Ok, well they are jogging across the map on our wall to Idaho by adding up all of their exercise each day and turning it into miles. What is in Idaho you ask? Triple Play! And some hiking around our favorite ID State park and relaxing as a family. Today they got 1.5 miles closer. Well, give em a break they are just getting started after a long winter of being stuck indoors all day.
It was a great morning for running. Since mom wasn't quite up for running Anna and mom walked the same route.
Time to get moving! We got into some bad habits during all this icky wet weather!
And yes they do get to each count their own miles so if all 3 of them run 1 mile it counts as 3 miles. Not a bad start this morning kiddos!
Did you know:
Over the past two decades, the prevalence of children who are obese has doubled, while the number of adolescents who are obese has tripled.
According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 31.9% of children and adolescents were overweight (BMI at or above the 85th percentile) and 16.3% were obese (BMI at or above 95th percentile).
20% of children get less than 60 minutes a day of physical activity.
What a wonderful idea. I will have to talk to Ralph about doing something like that for us. We have not gotten any significant exercise in months, well probably since last summer:( Keep up the great work, Stetson family, you are great role models.
