"My goal is to motivate all Americans about living healthy, physically active lives," said Cate Dill, a physical education teacher and AAHPERD member in Sudbury, Mass., who has walked and biked to school daily for the past three years.
On February 1 in Santa Barbara, Calif., Dill began an unprecedented 5,246 mile trek coast to coast called "Let's Get Moving America." Promoting physical activity, eating nutritiously and living one's passions Dill is walking, running, cycling, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, hiking and inline skating across the country to her destination in Boston, Mass., by mid-June.
