Reading Challenge: Mareth's Workout
Hey guys. I don't know about you but for me whenever I sit down at my computer or cuddle up with a good book I seem to stay there for hours. Studies have shown that sitting for more than 6 hours a day can increase your risk of death. The average kid is in school for 8 hours and I'm willing to bet that most of those hours are spent on their behinds. I had a very dear friend in high school who died our senior year. She had a Pulmonary Embolism. It's a blood clot in your lungs and it can form very easily if your blood is moving through your body sluggishly. She was just a normal kid, probably in better shape than I am. It was a real wakeup call for me. If you want to read more about this deadly problem I've included the link here. just take away the spaces

So I encourage each and every one of you to make sure you are staying active. That being said I hope you'll take this challenge and combine something you love (reading) with something that will keep you alive. This challenge can be applied to The Underland Chronicles Series or any TUC fan fiction.
Without further ado here is a little workout worthy of the finest trainers in all the underland:
