The Athletic Philosopher Podcast - Episode 11 My daughter's Terry Fox run from the heart

In this episode, I get to play the proud Dad and talk about what I saw transpire in my daughter for her 3rd Terry Fox Day at her school. I also moonlight as a Canadian sport historian, with a short description of Terry Fox, his Marathon of Hope, and why he stands as the paragon of Canadian sport heroism. 

It was truly inspirational to watch my daughter embody all of the great sporting virtues that I'm hoping to teach her through her own physical activity but also through important cultural heroes and community celebrations. She showed up and brought her heart.

I close by challenging everyone to take a bit of Terry Fox's indomitable spirit into their own lives. What are you settling in? Why don't you bring your full heart to your life? Why don't you aim to make the biggest positive impact you can imagine? What's holding you back. What would make you believe you CAN DO IT? Terry's legacy ultimately informs us to live life by our own terms to will about a better future we desire.
