Running

Action

Summary

I am a passionate of sports in general and I used to play soccer and table tennis four years ago when I was in France. However, when I came to Australia, I decided to stop playing them because I was focused on other things such as photography and furthermore, I didn't have time to do both of them. Since I was in grade 11, I didn't have the opportunity to do Physical Education at school anymore so I decided to do it by myself and devote some of my free time outside of school to do this. I did not want to play in a team so I chose a sport that I could practice by myself, and this was running. Fortunately, there is a beautiful lake next to the house where I live, and it provided me a beautiful place where I could run.

What I learnt

This experience encouraged me to push myself to the limit where I dedicated some of my free time outside of school to do physical exercises that I used to do at school until grade 11. It also gave me the opportunity to go outside of the house and do something diffferent from what I usually do (photography, homework, Twitter...). I still enjoy this hobby until today and I think that it is something very important for me because it encourages me to not only do physical exercises at least 3 times a week (which is essential for my health) but it also allows me to think about other things than school and enjoy the beauty of nature and wildlife (as I run around a lake).
