Home for the holiday



National leave you car at home day has just been announced to the public. America is known for sitting on their butts and not exercising. Hopefully this holiday will be able to change people's views on America. Maybe this holiday will even inspire people to get off their couch daily and exercise. We can only hope. By making this a holiday, people have no other choice than to get up and put the smallest bit of exercise into their day. I know that walking to your car and putting the key in ignition may seem like exercise to some, but come on people. On this national holiday the roads and highways will be off limits to cars and other automobiles. Citizens have the choice of riding their bike, walking, running, rollerblading, or any form of transportation that consists more than simply pushing the gas pedal. So dust off your bike seats or tie on your tennis shoes for a nice stroll in the park. This holiday will take place every June 18th. The weather is warm but not scorching hot. This way no one will have an excuse by saying its a cold snowy day or there's a torrential rainstorm. So get ready to get fit America and leave your car home for the holiday.
