September 29th, In Pain...
After Friday's fitness, today my abs are hurting like crazy...... I can't even stand straight without feeling like my abs are getting ripped in half. I really have to work on my core muscles more.

September 25th, Ultimate/Football
Today we tried to self-organize an ultimate game on the upper field, and it was a good learning experience for me as we tried to organize everyone so we can have a good game.
There were 17 people in our group of ultimate game, so we decided to divide into 4 groups. To save time, we picked four captains and quickly selected our group members. Making the teams this way saves some time, but like Mr. Neufeld pointed out, it may make the people left out at the end feel bad. I believe we can try another way to make the teams next time.
When we were trying to decide how to run the games, we ran into a lot of confusion because almost everyone had an opinion on how to set up the game. We agreed that there will be two games going on separate fields at the same time, but everyone wanted to have the rules and size of the fields their own way. In the end, I got everyone's attention, made my suggestions, and asked if anyone has any objections. Getting everyone's attention and having only one person really helped to quickly organize the game, and now I know how best to efficiently organize a game next time.
As we played the game, we made changes to the rules, making a larger field and requiring the Frisbee to be passed past the end zone to score a point. By changing the rules to improve the game and counting in everyone, we all had a really fun time.

September 20th, Pond Run
Today we went for the pond run in fitness, and did the one minute interval running, in which we run for a whole minute as hard as we can, then taking a minute break by walking.
The most important part of the workout was the last 15 seconds or so in the one minute of running, because after going at full speed for about 45 seconds, depending on each person's level of fitness, the human body starts shutting down, and it's pushing at this point that will improve the body and challenge it's limits.
I found this to be very true, because in every one minute interval when I ran to the 40 seconds mark, my legs starts giving out and it became much harder to keep running. I'm very proud that I kept trying to push myself, and ran the whole minute for every interval.

September 16th, Dodgeball
Today in dodgeball, I helped to make everyone else have fun by holding back on how hard I threw the ball at other people when I'm up close, so no one will get hurt from the game.
