The Grade 8 indoor P.E. track meet is coming up around the corner, so its's not exactly surprising what we did today: Practicing relee races. I admit it, I'm not a big fan of relee races, what I dislike about it is the pressure thats puts on the competitors. Everyone always gets so competitive. They seperate the faster, the stronger, the agile, the quick. Then we come up with team positions, so that the faster people will be first and last, to increase our chances of winning. And worse, during the track meet, everyone would be looking at you. If I didn't die from shyness first, I'll die from the pressure or the embarrassment. Anyways, for P.E. today, we did our warm up run around the gym today because it was way too cold outside, and then we got into different teams. We tried out a few relee races, and okay, I admit it, not all of them were bad. I especially loved the jump rope one and the shoe race. There were some that I didn't like, though. Probably everyone's worst was the hockey stick rickshaw, where two people hold the ends of the hockey stick and another person sits in the middle. Obviously, I was forced to sit on the hockey sticks. I'm the lightest, its obvious why they did it. But I dislike it the whole time. It's uncomfortable, you have to hold on for dear life, and even then you're in constant fear of your teammates dropping you. Other then practicing, we signed up for events. I'm in a total of 5, and they're all really fun, so now I'm looking forward to the track meet!
