Thank God for the privilege to participate in this week 75 edition 2 after a very long time here.
Whenever it is PE period it's always fun period in school in those days. In my school then PE is once every week, during this period there's no writing of notes and this makes it very interesting.
The only thing we do is to listen to instructions from our teachers as they direct us to do different exercises such as jogging around, sit-up, bend down and up, running and playing of football.
As a male child, i love football very much so this is an opportunity to play football to my satisfaction. Most of my classmates love to play football with me in the same group, because i'm a good defender and it is really hard for an opponent to pass me by due to my tackling skills and confidence at the front of the goal post.
There's a particular day during our weekly PE period, as usual I joined the football group and as we are playing an opponent approached me to dribble pass as i tried to tackle him i don't know there's a big stone behind me, so instead to hit the ball away from the opponent it was the stone that i hit at first i don't feel the pain, because i still manage to prevent the opponent from scoring.
But after some minutes i began to feel serious pain in my foot because i hit the stone so hard, before the closing hour that day i discovered that i couldn't walk again, i was carried home that day and i spent two weeks at home in order to treat my foot and to be fully recovered, it was a painful experience but after my recovery it doesn't stop me from playing football though i was very careful whenever i was to play football back then.
Also, i love running during our PE period so when it is time for interclass competition i always represent my class and i do come first during the competition. Physical education is a very good subject in schools as it deals with the development of the students body and physique and during the period every students express themselves in one way or the other and they were actively involved in the exercise, also they were very excited and happy during PE period as there will be no time for questions and answers or copy of notes from the chalkboard as the teacher writes in the other subjects.
During our PE period we also practice for the school inter-house competition majorly on track and field events such as relay, 100m, 200m, 400m, long jump and high jump. During my secondary school days i was privilege to be in white house which is the principal's house, there are lot of good guys there that are very devoted to the sports which makes the white house to be the winner in most of the inter-house competitions that were held in my school during my secondary school days.
When i gain admission into higher institution, i miss the PE period so much but there was a gym at my school whereby you will register with money to make use of the equipment there, so i registered and whenever i was free i used to visit the gym to exercise my body because i knew the importance of exercise.
