Doing these water activities will benefit your health a lot as well as your strength and flexibility. Kayaking and canoeing can also improve your aerobic fitness and cardiovascular health. It’s also a great way to lessen the risk of wear-and-tear on your joints and tissues.
There is no better way to explore the country’s capital than hopping on a two-wheel ride to navigate your way through the area. You can choose to visit the state’s famous monuments on a bike. If you don’t have your own bike, don’t worry because there are many bike rentals you can find in Washington. Just pick a biking trail of your choice depending on your abilities and be on your way.

Biking can help you lose or maintain body fat levels, increase cardiovascular fitness, improve joint mobility, and strengthen your bones.

A normal night at the Pizza Coop and Ale house turned into nightmare when Trisha Long, a long-time customer of the restaurant, fell to the ground with no pulse and no breathing. Lucky for her, Michael Griffin and Neale Porter, a couple of bystanders were right next to her to provide rescue breathings and chest compressions. They each took turns in providing much needed CPR techniques until paramedics arrived to take Trisha to the nearest medical center.
