Fitness Test

WE DID IT, THEY ALL PASSED.  In one of our School Programs we have been working on our fitness levels by extending our warm up a little and running laps around the gym.  Initially we did one or two laps, and then extended it to three or four.  Our goal for the year was to be able to run 5 laps without stopping or walking,  but being comfortable with the idea has been just as challenging as actually physically running the laps.  Yesterday was test day.  Last week I described how this week was going to go, and how we were going to prepare for the big challenge.  In addition to warm up, Monday we ran 3 laps, Tuesday we ran 4, and Wednesday we ran all 5 laps.  There was some anxiety about the test, but once we completed the test I saw satisfaction and confidence within the group.  I am extremely proud of how had everyone has worked and how we have accomplished our goal of 5 laps around the gym.  
Having said that, we have a new goal... 15 laps by the end of the year.
