Tennis Shoes wrecked

 So I had the barricade 8 and they got ripped in 7 months! I did not play tennis for 2 months due to injury and going on a vacation to a very hot place. So now that they are ruined I have to get new ones. Maybe I should get 2 pairs, one for training and one for matches because I burn through the most durable shoe brand in the sport.So it took me 5 months to rip through them. Maybe I should play tennis on better courts so they last a little longer. I play 2-6 hours depending if it is sunny outside or not. If it is sunny I play 3 hours with my brother and then I play 3 hours with my dad. If it is getting dry from rain we will go and play for 2 hours so we have less chance to get injured. #LOVE FOR THE SPORT

The dances

 So when we danced I learned that I was brave to try something new and get out of my comfort zone.I also showed a new leadership aspect of me by showing my friends and we each commenting on each other. I think that week was a very fun week for gym class.

I thin that I deserve a G because I give it all I have and try and get others more actively involved. I have been getting better at being a leader and a team player and have brought my gym strip all of the time.I have helped people who need it and run with people who are as fast as me or run by myself if I can't find anyone that run's the same pace as me. I have been blogging more often and have been more intense in fitness days and challabge myself to keep going. Even if my legs start to hurt.

Tennis updates and my Blister

     So one thing new that you will learn about me is that I love to play tennis and I play about 2 hours everyday if the weather is good. I have been playing a lot and now I am starting to have blisters because I have forgot to change my grip. I have been hurt and now I will need to to put on tape and play tennis.I am also # 38 in British Columbia as of right now! My goal this year is to get in the top 15 and that is very achievable for me.

Community Run

    In the community run I got 4th place. I felt like I could not breath because I had to keep the same pace. In good news I was the first grade 9 to finish but the bad news is Will, Richard and  another person who all were in grade ten came ahead of me. I felt very very very very very tired, after the community run. I could pace myself better so that I dont jog for 5 mins and take a 1 minute break and I could bring a water bottle with me so that I am "nourished".

Beep Test

Today we did the beep test and I felt like I did a very good job because I was the last grade 9 and the last person who kept up with the beeps. I got 11.9 and after 11 I almost fell a beep behind and was forced to sprint and that exhausted me because I changed pace to fast and I felt like quitting after 11 but all the motivation by my friends kept me up there. I felt way to tired and my legs did not help me. Even after having my injury in my legs I got a very good score. I was exhausted after the beep test and I tried to post pictures or videos of me but the ipads were being evil with me. So the thing I could do better is keep up with the beeps and pace better. I could also start wearing shorts instead of wearing sweatpants because that is also a strong variable. I felt that I tried my best and I need to keep pushing myself.

Insanity workout

     Today we did INSANITY and I think that it was insane! In the first 10 minutes it seemed easy but when I thought to push myself harder it really made me sweat.I felt very tired after insanity because I think that I pushed myself to the limits. I had to take a total of 3 minutes of beak because I got to tired. The thing that I could have done better is that I felt that I could take less breaks so that I can get more fit. I felt like I also took a leadership role by helping the people around me to push themselves harder.



After the work out I was tired.
