Thursday reflection by Xu Yidong

Today’s PE lesson was quite short—only half an hour. However, it was quite tiring because it was purely some physical training. It was like this: students are separate into different teams and each team is separate into two parts, each part stand on one side of the part of the playground. One of the teammate in one side is going to rush to the other side and clap hand with one guy over there to allow him/her to rush to the other side. All the teams were involved in a competition and the team which won will have two giant size of “plus 100” as prizes. I thought this was my chance to show a little bit because I have been practicing distance running for really a long time. However, after the competition began, I found it was definitely not the case. After the PE lesson, I reflected and finally found that distance running is more about improving your endurance while 20m running is about speed strength. Although I tried my best to accelerate, I owned no advantages. However, when it comes to the recovery, I found several of my friends still feel acidic on their legs in the next day while I did not feel tired right after I finished all the 20m running.
