    Transportation Walk Instead
    Half of all trips made in the US are three miles or less; 72% of them are driven. Does this statistic describe your own transportation habits? If so, how might you incorporate more muscle-powered transportation in your daily life?

    Walking to school in the morning took more preparation than driving, but it felt good to start and end my day with being outside. Next time, I am going to incorporate utilizing a long board to make the experience more enjoyable.
