#TrainTogether Ball Handling Part III

Take the Challenge - Join Our Team!

Team: Make Yourself Run 100!
Ages: any
Ability: any
Countable activities: literally.. just about anything

Join me in staying active, virtually social, and physically distant. Take the 100 Miles Challenge with me, starting April 1st! It’s an interactive friendly competition where all activities convert to miles. While social distancing doesn’t allow us to get together with our friends right now, the 100 Miles Challenge is a great way to stay social online while we exercise from a safe distance.

Track your progress on the leaderboards, or just set a personal goal and nevermind the competition! This is normally a fundraiser for the Healthy Futures program. Pledging is optional this year. Sitting around while you hunker down is not. Spread the word, not the virus, and join the fun!

What's on the Nightstand this Month?

Feel like challenging yourself to read a book every month with me? Here's what's on the nightstand this month.

April: Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl

Making sense of life and the world we live in is no easy task, especially when we are searching for answers to timeless questions.

What is our purpose?
Why does there have to be suffering, and is it good?
What do difficult times teach us?
How can we get through difficult times?
Why do things happen to us?

Viktor Frankl explores these questions and more in his book Man's Search for Meaning, which may be one of the most relevant reads available to us right now. As a holocaust survivor and neurologist, he explores these questions with the rare perspective of having lived through unimaginable terrors and being able to scientifically dissect them.
