The only thing I don’t know how to do? Get the word out.

I'll be sharing a LOT of videos and content over the coming weeks. If you can help spread the word, I’d appreciate it more than you can ever imagine 🙏

So I’m asking for your help. I have 💯 confidence in my ability to run incredible events—if you've been part of any of the 25 FFL seasons or playoffs I’ve run, you know that's true...

Functional Fitness isn’t here to replace @crossfit, @hyroxworld, obstacle racing, or anything else. We're here to legitimize the umbrella so we can access grant funding—and, more importantly, so I can finally get my @raincityfitclub kids school credit for all the torture I put them through (jkjk 😉)

If I can legitimize FF as a sport in Canada, I can finally make that happen. One of the biggest hurdles? Awareness.

When I opened @raincityathls a decade ago, I dreamed of kids coming to my gym and earning PE credit for working out with their parents, being part of a healthy community. I imagined my coaches being hired to teach the proper mechanics of an air squat or a burpee in schools.

Not just because we're partnering with CFFF to host the first-ever multi-day super playoff event, but because if we can make that event what it deserves to be, it'll help show the Canadian government that FF is a sport Canadians care about—getting me one step closer to my real dream...

I've run more @functionalfitnessleague matches and events than some experienced coaches have run classes, but this upcoming season means more to me than all prior combined.

Still trying to wrap my head around this one... and how the colors of the flag (and what they represent as people) are screwed through the red looking glass 🤯

Just a few of the references to 'the game'

Cant forget the jeans

ABA It has been three weeks since Inauguration Day. Most Americans recognize that newly elected leaders bring change. That is expected. But most Americans also expect that changes will take place in accordance with the rule of law and in an orderly manner that respects the lives of affected individuals and the work they have been asked to perform. Instead, we see wide-scale affronts to the rule of law itself, such as attacks on constitutionally protected birthright citizenship, the dismantling of USAID and the attempts to criminalize those who support lawful programs to eliminate bias and enhance diversity. We have seen attempts at wholesale dismantling of departments and entities created by Congress without seeking the required congressional approval to change the law. There are efforts to dismiss employees with little regard for the law and protections they merit, and social media announcements that disparage and appear to be motivated by a desire to inflame without any stated factual basis. This is chaotic. It may appeal to a few. But it is wrong. And most Americans recognize it is wrong. It is also contrary to the rule of law. The American Bar Association supports the rule of law. That means holding governments, including our own, accountable under law. We stand for a legal process that is orderly and fair. We have consistently urged the administrations of both parties to adhere to the rule of law. We stand in that familiar place again today. And we do not stand alone. Our courts stand for the rule of law as well.

Someone at the American Bar Association ate their Wheaties this morning.

When social media exposes traditional media’s deceit, it’s time for independent journalists to investigate why the press is backing a president who undermines free press—and is it coordinated?

I feel like there's not just 2, but 3 types of people based on how the received the #superbowl half time show @kendricklamar.bsky.social

1. hated it #maga
2. thought it was all about #drake
3. actually got it 🤯

I'm still unpacking how fking incredible it was but here's just a fraction so far...

The upside to Whistler prices skyrocketing? Time to explore new mountains 👀⛷️ Had some of my best runs ever at @ferniealpineresort—until day 3 hit -25 and 2/3 of the mountain stayed closed 🥶

I'll be back for Polar Peak laps one day 😬

Maybe it's the #adhd but it's only recently that I've started to understand there are people who actually have no empathy...

Billionaires Should Not Exist Yes, every billionaire really is a policy failure.

When a single billionaire can accumulate more money in 10 seconds than their employees make in one year, while workers struggle to meet the basic cost of rent and medicine, then yes, every billionaire really is a policy failure.

Angles matter.

I'm in Canada... This is insane.

First uphill day of the season! #skitour #thorgoesoutside

How pong feels about having to live for another 100 years at the beginning of the dark ages...

The one I don't get is what's the point in being rich if you're not going to be healthy? Like... Why not try to maximize time your body's not in pain so you can continue to spend your 'hard earned' money!?
