A survey published by the BBC in the past few days has revealed some startling (eh?) information regarding children living in the U.K., saying that, of 1,500 kids between the ages of six and fifteen, 22% had never run a distance of 400 metres, 10% couldn’t ride a bike and 15% couldn’t swim. The punch line of all of this? 77% of these kids have a gaming console at home, and 68% of them own a mobile phone.

I guess this just goes to show that kids in the U.K. are behind in fitness compared to other countries like America!

Oh wait…
