Last activity day with buddies

So on the last activity day with buddies we played lacrosse. It was fun especially trying to teach them because it reminded me of how I was when I tried at the start. I told the little buddies that it's best if we work together and it doesn't matter if we win or lose as long as we had fun. I pumped them up and we made a name and I scream it out and everyone said it after so they were hyper. Overall whenever my buddies would get a point I would scream yes and be excited so they were excited too. By the end they all ran and passed and communicated well and were super happy. I high fives them all and they seemed happy. It was really fun!

Pyramid

Today we had a choice of things to do for fitness. There was yoga running and the pyramid. I choose to do the pyramids be cause my cardio is great and there were too many people at yoga plus I stretch at home so yeah. I stayed beside Zauq an Kyle because I feel like they can help push me. I went super fast and got to 9 or 10 reps of each activity. I found the birdies the hardest to do because it took a lot of energy to do them. I went super fast tho. By the end I was super tired and definitely gave it my all. I'm happy I chooses to do this instead of yoga and cardio because I had a great workout and had fun doing it except for the house music that was playing it was not very inspirational and felt like we were doing a beep test or community run.






Lol on the last picture I thought Kyle was taking a selfie so
I look like a total dumbo

WALK

I went for a walk instead of getting someone to pick me up. Idk what else I can say ummm the humidity level was chill dude. Umm there were clouds in the air and it was a good day. The temperature was around 16 degrees. It was like a decent 30 mins walk. Oh yeah I also went to the gym today and do upper body and core. It was a GOOD WALK .

Leading other classes

I'm So today it was choice and first me Zauq Kyle and Gurjap decided to play baseball but then me and Gurjap went to play CTF. So we took the equipment and decide that we both would lead. Then when we came tulin was there and I asked if she wants to lead or she wants me to. She took charge and organized the game. Gurjap enforced the rules and I set up and made sure everyone played and ran and smiled. Tulin did a good job but she didn't enforce them so proper weren't listening and we're doing their own thing. Gurjap made them listen and then tulin could talk. When the game finally started people cheated back talked and lied and did not run at all. I told people to run and they're like no and then I tell my own team to run as a group and someone tells me to shut up. The other classes attitudes are very different to ours. We told the rules but people didn't listen and did their own thing. I kept on giving tulin ideas so she could lead and overall considering that we had to lead a bunch of juniors who don't listen and cheat we did a great job. I felt like neufs class took charge but when they don't listen and don't run it imacts the game very negatively. There were some who did listen and i thank them. We also clear up and brought all the equipment back. Overall tulin did a great job of leading and me and Gurjap really had to enforce the rules and set up the game and give ideas. We had a good time but if people cooperated it would have been much more fun compared to today.


Grouse grind

On Monday me and my family decided to do the grouse grind. I wanted to do this again because my last time was 1 hour and 30 mins and I was really tired after. This time I went with my brother and we both kept on going for 4 mins and stopped for 1. This way we regained our energy and had a good time. It was funny because we motivated this really fit guy because we kept on catching up to him and he kept on getting up and kept on going. Then there were these kids who were full of energy and at the end of 3/4 my brother ran out of water so instead of leaving him I have him half of mine. I could have easily gone faster but I felt like he needed motivation so I waited 3 mins at 1/4 for him and then he went faster. At the end I ran when I saw the top and beat those energetic kids and that really fit guy. It was fun 


Buddies

We went to do buddies again but this time we would play baseball but it was set it differently. I went with Zauq and Kyle again and out buddies seemed nervous at first but then they smiled and ran. I was running lots at the start but then I stopped and let the little buddies run and have fun. We let them get home runs but we also made each of them sole and we felt good inside. We high fives our buddies and they seemed really happy. It's better to lead and let's the little buddies have a better time idk you just feel better in th inside. 

25 minute run

So this reminded me of the time on grade 8 when I was in ms miles class and we would do this all the time. I continually ran all the time and got 6-9 laps depending on how fast I went. I wasn't the fastest and that was surprising so that's what motivated me to go harder. Today it reminded me of that. I chooses Zauq and Kyle as my partners because they both are very fit and can motivate me. We ran 5 mins and rested for 1. It was a good pace because we all could keep it but then we found out Zauq had a problem with his ankle and couldn't run as fast. So we motivated him to push through and took longer breaks. another group got infrotn of us because we kept on taking breaks but we all did really good. I felt like this pace was good and we stayed at a great pace with music and plenty of motivation. We all were sweaty and had a good time and talked about things while running. 


This was us before we ran

And after we all looked like we were agitated but we all worked hard and pushed through. I was happy that Zauq kept his pace strong even though his leg was hurting and Kyle and me
Kept motivating and throughout we talked plenary and had a good time because our music taste was the same so we screamed the song and ran. It was really fun!!

why I push myself

So I remembered this other time where we did fitness as a mass gym class and we had to choose a partner and run around the school while the partner does exercises. I pushed myself along with joel, arjun, gurjap and even nick. If they were slow and I saw them walk i would burst the sprint so they would have to go again and if they tried id go slower and let them catch their breath. I felt like some werent putting any effort.AT the end i was burnt and red all over. Then neufeld asked why do u push yourself. My anwser to that is because I play a physical sport and love to be fit. I just love trying my hardest and challenging myself to overcome new obstacles. At the start when i came to the class i was really underwhelmed by the people here. Honestly this is gonna sound so mean but i didn't think that anyone would try by looking at them at the start of this class. I was totally wrong tho all our class puts a lot of effort and that's what pushes everyone to become better. I like to be  a positive vibe in class even when im not mentally prepared but i try nit to show it and it works. People get a positive vibe and instead of saying OHH LOOK AT THIS TRY HARD they tactfully try harder. Thats why I help the other team so the WHOLE class can have a better experience. Like winning is cool but without people trying and it being one sided id rather just leave the class honestly if i get a bad vibe one day. I try my hardest so i can make other do better and also if i can go in pe, have afterschool practice on some days and then go play tennis and then go to the gym. Even though i come at like 9PM i feel happy that I took charge and tried my hardest. I love being fit it makes me feel good. So overall this is gonna sound cheesy but I try my hardest for the benefit of the class and tone it down if it becomes one sided. 


Here's a picture after we all stretched 

BOOTCAMP

     SO we did this for fitness with both the band classes. I fell like everyone has a lot more fun when both classes are involved because you talk to your friends from the other class and you can see their tone or mood  PE and compare it to your class. MY total score was 426 which is weird. The thing is that i didn't know how to count my numbers like if i went to one side it counts as one whole or would it be if I go there and back so i just counted when you go there and back. I partnered up with joel and gurjap. I feel like joel could push me and gurjap would see us try hard and put more effort in which he did. There was also the part where people cheated themselves and went to fast and didn't do the exercise properly. I feel like it was a bad idea to run to start of so I decided to do it at the end. After all our legs were hurting even arjuns and gurjaps. IT was funny because we all could barely walk up the stairs and I know for a act that our legs were killing us. Yeah what let me down was upper body strength
