We jumped at the chance to work with a group of young people who have identified themselves as youth leaders; we are all about youth leadership at SIM! We took this opportunity to fill these young leaders in on our simple plan for how they can begin to make a difference for physical activity!

Competitive Spirit – Activity and the World Cup
It doesn’t really matter what you’re motivation is, for us it was the competitive spirit, which can be a really amazing force. Look at the World Cup. People from all over the world are coming together. A few of them come to actually compete as world class athletes. Most come to cheer and be entertained by the competition both in person and all around the globe.

Why is Physical Activity Fun?? Ask Tim
I was stuck on blog inspiration for this week – I had a couple of thoughts but nothing I was feeling desperate to share with the world. Then I checked my twitter (have I mentioned how much I love twitter.. I love it! [follow me @Kenji22] haha). A second glance at my direct messages revealed a tweet for my “awesome friend Tim” with another idea about how he stays active playing league rec hockey. So this one’s for you Timma!

Climate change: physical activity can make a difference
Today is a really exciting day. It is blog Action day! This day was created to ignite a discussion. Bloggers from around the world take one day to focus on a single issue. This effectively changes the global conversation on the web and refocuses attention on an important issue. I think now more than ever the focus is where is should be, on climate change. The simple truth is, if you live on this planet you impact it. Ultimately through all my searching I realized that no issue stands alone. Physical Inactivity has its way of contributing to the global climate crisis.
