Sauntering Day is celebrated on June 19th each year and encourages people to spend the day relaxing however they would like. This unofficial holiday is about having a day of rest and free time away from our busy work schedules. In the late 1970s, W.T. Rabe established Sauntering Day at the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island, Michigan. As jogging became more popular, Rabe was inspired to create a day for people to unwind and relax from their normal pace of life.
So, how does jogging inspire a day of rest? Rabe saw jogging as a symbol to slow down the pace of our lives for one day. This means, whatever your normal day-to-day activities entail, you should take a break to relax your mind and body. Sauntering Day encourages people to take a walk and enjoy life at a slower pace, but you can do anything you like to relax!
