3:25 This year’s I-Did-a-Read competition is one of the longest yet, clocking in at 900 miles. Or rather, 900 minutes of reading. Each participant receives a “trail log” to track their progress. A minute of reading equals about two minutes on the trail. The I-Did-a-Read was created by Nick Tweet, the Director of Climate and Culture at the school. “It’s challenging this year," Tweet said. "But we’re also trying to reach out to the parents and say look at this value that we share and look at how powerful it can be. What we’re trying to do is foster that time that they spend at home. It’s great to see adults setting aside time and sitting down next to them and reading.”
