This article is so important because people don't realize how much exercise a human truly needs. Most people think doing a few things around the house is enough exercise for a whole day. Did you know a human should take a minimum of 6,000 steps a day! If we did this and participated in more activities, we would be very healthy and strong. We could reach this goal by just taking a walk in the park! Remember, 6,000 steps a day could only be a little while away.
My point of view about this article is that if you read it, you can be encouraged to get lots of exercise and have fun while doing it. If I were you I'd go onto SILive.com right now and look up the article, "Don't Hibernate: Stay Active," as soon as possible!
I realized grabbing a friend or taking a walk can be as amazing as winning a million dollars. Even if you participate in sports or other activities, grab a friend and get started. As it said in the article, "Get your bike and strap on a helmet because it's the perfect time."
I would also just like to say thank you to Sherrina Navani, author of this article, for telling me what I'm missing by staying inside. Always remember there is a whole world out there to explore.
