Why we should ski this year. - Beset, as we are with troubles and worries, real or imaginary, with the end of the world in sight and the constant fear in our mind of "What's going to happen next", it is.. 1/2

@firkinentropy @NakkertokRacing Skis looked fast! 😁

Hey, Twitter! What questions do you want answered for female athletes? If the funding, participants, and facilities were available, what would you want studied? #femaleathletehealth #2021FAC #sportsmedicine

@MikePMoffatt Get the cornell lab Merlin app. Identifies birds just by answering a few questions. And it's free.

Really important for coaches: warning signs of disordered eating and risk factors. As coaches, need to think about mitigating risks.

[Trent Stellingwerff, PhD / CSEP-CEP / FACSM / ChPC @TStellingwerff]

OPEN ACCESS! Must read if you work in sport. The Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) and National Eating Disorders Collaboration (NEDC) position statement on disordered eating in high performance sport - great work to this team: https://t.co/UpjyLhwXsY

1/ opening schools for K-6 or K-8 in the fall is really not that difficult. The key variable for the most part is space: we need fewer students per class and we can't re-open if restricted to current classrooms. Basically we need to increase # of rooms by 50-70%

[British Journal of Sports Medicine (BJSM) @BJSM_BMJ]

Is running associated with a lower risk of all-cause, cardiovascular and cancer mortality, and is more better?

A wonderful infographic to accompany one of the biggest #BJSM papers of 2020! Thanks @AdamVirgile & team!

We admit, sometimes wearing a mask in public isn't the most fashionable or comfortable choice. But some people wear Leafs jerseys, so yeah. Just saying.

I feel like these companies with new permanent WFH policies are forgetting about the benefits of co-location and cross pollination of ideas at "the water cooler".

IMO I don't want to work from home permanently. I'm missing the creativity that in person conversation provides.

"We need to close streets – partly or entirely – to give people more room to circulate safely, especially in large urban centres. We need to let people use parks to their full extent – enough of this “stay on the path or be fined” nonsense." Thanks @picardonhealth

@JohnIbbitson Thanks!

@JohnIbbitson Beginner question: does/do the performers matter? Looking for a way to build Spotify playlists...

Total income = total expenditure.

If you want to earn more than you spend, you need someone else in the economy to correspondingly spend more than it earns.

Every dollar of surplus must find its source from a dollar of deficit (and vice versa)

I've put together resources to keep kids active during #COVID19.

@VeraEtches A city-wide plan to provide safe outdoor access for active transport, walking, and physical activity (access to parks, pathways, close roads if need be).

[ashkan soltani @ashk4n]

Tomorrow, Oakland is announcing 74miles of street closures to permit runners/bikers/walkers to use the streets while maintain social distancing #oaklandflowstreets

I see the @PeterMackay campaign is still running like a well-oiled machete.

[Sheila Kealey MPH @skeila]

Calgary is closing entire streets for pedestrians & Winnipeg is designating 4 stretches of road as bicycle & #activetransportion routes. Can we follow this lead @VeraEtches��@JimWatsonOttawa @ottawahealth? https://t.co/I1LvIhEZZH via @nationalpost
