As the founder of the first World Fitness Day, which will be held in Atlanta on May 1, you will be leading what might be called the biggest gym class ever.
We’re taking over the Georgia Dome, which is home of the Atlanta Falcons. It can hold 3,000 people on the floor and other people in the stands. A friend of mine e-mailed and said that with all that music and fun it sounds like Woodstock without the drugs and the rain.
Is there anything odd about holding World Fitness Day in Atlanta, headquarters of Coca-Cola, whose sugar-laden drinks are fueling an obesity epidemic?
Coca-Cola is one of our sponsors. Coke is making a huge effort to put out healthy drinks. For example, in schools it doesn’t put out sugary soft drinks anymore.
