Kids today are leading an increasingly sedentary lifestyle; they tend to spend more of their time indoors either playing with their gadgets or watching TV. As parents, we want them to lead a more active lifestyle by encouraging them to play outdoor sports and engage in other physical activities.

As for our Elijah, he walks with me within the village in the morning as often as I can. By often, that should mean an average of 3x on weekdays. Or, we’ll bring out his bike and take a few full turn in the neighborhood. During weekends, the little boy, myself and Paulo will go to the “big oval” (as Elijah would call it, yes, the Ultra in Pasig) for some jogging.
