This week on the show I'm joined by Dan Edwards. Dan is the headteacher of the Woodstock Primary Academy in Leicester and I first came across him when I read his blog 'Acknowledging the empty cup' in which he writes about how he took up running. Dan has now run three half-marathons, nine marathons and four ultra-marathons and has a plan to run five marathons in five days for charity. As a runner myself, and someone who understands how important exercise is to a healthy mind, I was really interested in how while working as a headteacher, he fit in the running. In this interview, Dan tells us exactly how he fits in running and how you can make time for a pastime too. (It doesn't have to be running but I'm hoping that Dan's story might make you more likely to give it a try.) Dan also explained what he is referring to in his blog 'Repositioning the doughnuts'.
