Midterms!!

       I would say I'm not yet satisfied with my fitness level as well as my effort in p.e. I feel like I could do a lot better inside and outside of class. What I do think I'm doing well on is encouraging others, and participating during fitness/choice.
        Outside of class, I don't do much physical activity. I do walk a lot, I walk everyday to and from school, and I often walk to my friends houses. To improve my health/fitness level, I need to spend less time on the computer, and more time outside doing real physical activity. I also need to eat healthier, and eat breakfast in the morning. 

       On some fitness events that require running, I feel like I do really well. On other activities that requires body strength, I have a harder time keeping up. I feel like I do well on the pond run, and the 30 minute run. Insanity is much more difficult, but I still try to do the activity, or change it in a way thats easier for me. I surround my self with positive people and we take turns encouraging each other, to keep on trying. During choice days, I always help set up the equipment. I also always have my gymstrip, except for when I forget to bring my shoes. It's sometimes a lot harder to do activities, especially when it's fitness. I need to remember to bring the right shoes, and be changed in time for class.

      Overall, I feel like I can do a lot better, and I need to work harder towards a better health. I think I deserve a B.

Final assesment

This year, in PE I've shown up consistently,  and have never forgotten my gym strip. I also participate in class activities, from choice to fitness. Throughout the year, ive began getting more active outside of school, I started going to dance workshops after school. Although it was a new experience, (I don't dance, nor am I very good at it) it was a great experience, and i found myself having a lot of fun along the way. I've also found myself eating healthier as the year progressed, eating less junk food as snacks, as well as fast food, since I now (thanks to foods class) know what harm they could do for your health. I learned that there are lots of easy, healthy snacks you can make, in no time.

On weekends, I have also been more active, instead of sitting around on the computer most of the day, I go and play outside, (as in simply moving around, playing basketball, riding a bike, playing tag around the neighborhood, etc ) since a lot of people from school live nearby. Because of these changes, I find PE to be less of something that bothers me, and more as something to have some fun in, especially with the beautiful weather. Although I dont like some of the activities we do, I still try to have some fun, and I enjoy the choice activities we do, because there is always something new to try. In activities I bring a positive attitude, and participate. An example was today's activity, in lacrosse. I had a lot of fun, as it was a great day outside. I ran around a lot, and tried my best, while laughing and enjoying the game.

My goal for my fitness would be able to run for a longer amount of time, as well as to be more comfortable with having my heart rate up.Over the year, my fitness level has improved, as well as my outlook towards PE.  I should still improve on helping out set up equipment, or taking leadership. Some things that can keep me from achieving my goal would in all honesty, is my time on my computer. I spend a lot of time on social media sites or playing video games on my pc. I also have a lot of trouble sleeping. Whenever I seem gloomy, I'm actually really really tired. Although, I still try my best in fitness and other class activities. Even though I know I have improved over the year, I think I deserve a B.

Replacing chips and popcorn with fruits :) at least the sweet taste of oranges can distract me from mufasas death

Last Beep test of the year

on fridays beep test, i told myself to at least go up to 7, and made it up to 8.1. I honestly thought i could have done better, when i counted my pulse, my heart rate, it was 199. ive never counted my heart rate before, and was surprised because 8.1 was my second highest. I realized ive always felt tired, throughout the day, even when there was no pe that day. i figured it had to do with the lack of breakfast/sleep/snacks i eat throughout the day. I feel like if i can change my habits my fitness would improve.

30 minute run

My face looked more red i swear
By the end of the run i finished 5 and a half laps. i started our well, but began to walk/slow run near the end. i felt like i could have done better, i began to get tired and loose my motivation running with nadia and andrea in the beginining really helped me, they encouraged me to keep running and helped me keep a steady pace. 

Interms March 6

Hi mr neuf, so far in this semester I think i've been doing pretty good. I've been trying harder in fitness, as well as choice. I also motivate others. Something i need to work on however, is getting to class on time, as well as updating my blog and taking pictures for it. I find myself enjoying pe more, and having a good attitude. I think ive improved from last semester.
