Fitness app!

I love using apps to motivate myself to go out and run or keep track of the things I eat. My two favorite apps at the moment are Zombies, Run! And MyFitnessPal. I use the running game to make my running sessions more enjoyable so it would make me want to do it more often. For example, I went out for a run with my parents and my dog (they basically walked the whole time) and I used this app to run for about 25-30 minutes. In between songs, there are zombie chases which can be scary at times but you would have to sprint up to 2 minutes in order to get away! I love this app soo much !

Dodgeball

On september 16, my class and I played dodgeball. I helped the class by cheering people on when I was out. I also pass the ball to someone I did not know. I think my friends also helped me feel comfortable in this class :)

Hill Run

For today, we did the hill run. it was really tiring since it was the first time to do one this year. I think it was a pretty good exercise for fitness. I hate the way my legs feel on the day after the run but it just shows that I was working hard throughout the workout. I also wasn't too excited to run in the sun either! Here is a video of me running up the hill and a picture of me walking back to the high school after the run. Overall, I enjoyed the run and hope to do it again soon.

Fitness friday

To start off the first day of fitness, all the classes did the beep test. I was suprised to get a 8.3 because I did not do much over the summer. I think my goal for the year would be to beat my personal best of 9.3. As for the other fitness activities such as sit and reach, body press, and the t test, I did not see any changes from the start of last year to this year. I am looking forward to improving my fitness during this year.

I took a photo a few minutes after the beep test to get evidence of my hard work and right after running, my face was sweaty and my cheeks were red.
