I failed as a runner for decades.

But in the last 8 years I’ve run 9,000+ miles and 7 ultramarathons by making a few simple changes (that you can do too).

Here are 10 tips to bulletproof your running:

I’ve been a hospital chaplain now for eight years at hundreds of deathbeds. I want to tell you something I’ve witnessed.

Most people, at the end, realize they’ve spent a lot of their life hiding. Sometimes by choice, or because they could not safely choose to be themselves. ➡️

One of my best outdoor, ELA assignments this year was getting students to take a picture in the forest, and then take the exact same picture once a week for the duration of their time in my class. It highlighted the process of change over time. @perfinker @Roomtoplay

@laurapj88 It's a hike around Killarney Lake - 9km round trip and pretty easy. The best part is that you can start as soon as you get off the ferry, so you can go as a walk on!

@KevinTheStocker Ha! Barely! There might have been some running involved near the end of our hike😬

It was a beautiful day for a hike on Bowen Island! #sd36learn

After what felt like a very long time, I was finally able to get some of my students into the wilderness today. It solidified once again why I love doing this! Despite the rain, spirits weren’t at all dampened!

One of my favourite moments as a teacher is when my class is having a discussion, the block ends, and no one gets up to leave. It doesn't happen a lot, but I sure love when it does!

NSLC students collected almost 20 kgs of garbage out of Green Timbers Forest yesterday! @sd36learn @CityofSurrey

@MrRileyDueck @TeachersOnFire Seriously?! That’s awesome!

[jonathan rempel @cloudraker1]

Every now and then I like to show my students some of the interesting, funny, informative, educational, or current things I find on the internet. Today I showed them something beautiful. https://t.co/bAwyKW2Fst #sd36learn

Last year one of my goals was to bike to school an average of one day a week. In total, I biked to school 46 times equaling 1610km. I'm hoping to break 2000km this year!
