Running In Me Research Paper

I had heard about the running club about being advertised through via email. I wanted to see what it was always about because I’ve been wanting to get back in shape. So, I decided to go to the meeting to try it out to see if this would be something that I want to do. The meeting was supposedly held outside of Rinker in the pit. I was actually very excited to go that day because of the anticipation piling up as the time got closer.

Just running describes a young man who grew up in an environment filled with child abuse and neglect. It tells us a story of how a young mother, who was constantly drunk encouraged her child to steal for her. It tells the story of a boy who grew up stealing, constantly surrounded by gun violence, and how he was physically and emotional abused. However, it also tells a story of how that young boy meant this wonderful woman who saw something special in him; it was because of her that he changed for the better. He started playing football and he became a completely different man from the boy he was previously. This audio clip relates to three articles in these modules. The first article it relates to is the neuroplasticity article since this young

Sports differ in many ways even the things that should be the same can be complete opposites. I have played football, basketball, soccer, track, and cross country and I never payed attention to running in any of those sports except for in track and cross country. I did not notice the amount of running I did in all those sport until I had to only focus on the running aspect. To this day I can say I have learned lessons in all of my sports, but running sports have taught me the most. Running is mandatory in so many sports, yet it has presented some of the largest obstacles for a me to overcome mentally.

After every race, you can vaguely expect what you will see up on the clock. I know, now, how much I put in, is only as much as I can expect to get out. Running has helped me form some ideas that are still fresh in my brain but will hopefully help me become a better version of myself. Just remember, someone may have a lifetime ahead of them, but they need to make the last bit just as good as the

I learned how to teach people things. If you've never done that before, let me tell you it's an empowering feeling. I learned about hard work. Through FFA i’ve learned how hard you have to work to do the things you want to do. I've helped fund raise the money to go on all of the FFA trips we have went on, as well as mentally challenged myself by individually planning, organizing and overseeing fund raisers. After joining FFA I joined track. Track has taught me so much about hard work as well, because for me track is something I’ve had to work at. I'm a six boot tall clumsy girl so in order to go fast I first had to figure out how to get all of my body parts headed in the same direction. My favorite race is the 400 meter dash, which most people don't enjoy because it's a super long sprint. I've worked really hard at it the past three years and i just keep improving at it. My sophomore year at one of my meets I improved my 400 time by 5 seconds! and if you have ever ran track you would know that's actually quite a bit. after that it changed my whole perspective of life. It taught me that I can do anything that I set my mind

I wasn’t always a runner. Some kids are born into the running cult, but not me. We have a treadmill in our basement that my parents occasionally use when they got on a health kick, but neither of them pushed me to be a runner. During the summer of sixth grade, my mother was talking to our neighbor in our driveway. While they were standing on the blistering pavement, the subject of Cross Country came up. My neighbor’s son was on the high school team and it was doing a

Although I had only participated in the school Cross Country team for two years, I felt very connected to the team and wish I had participated my sophomore and freshmen year as well. Over the two seasons, I have made many great friends and learned the importance of working hard to achieve my goals. Throughout my life, my parents have pushed me academically, but never really encouraged me to try hard in sports or physical activities. Cross country filled that void for me and helped me become a more well-rounded person.

The first way cross country changed my life was by teaching me that it’s okay to not be the best at something you do and still enjoy it. I joined cross country because friends and I thought it would be great conditioning for basketball and help me build toughness and staminia. I never thought I would actually enjoy it or be very good. As I kept running I got better and improved, but in comparison to other girls I wasn’t very fast at all. I was one of the slowest people on

I first started Cross Country when I was a freshman. My freshman year I was out for part of the season because of an injury. When I was released I ran my first race and came in fifth place. Since it was my first race to ever run I was very nervous and excited to just run and get it over with. After being out for so long and going back and running my first race and getting fifth place was one of the best accomplishments I admire.

When I began as a high school freshman, it quickly became a normal as well as an essential part of life. I ate, I slept, I sometimes did homework, and I ran but, not necessarily in that order.

Starting out just testing the water, Cross Country and Tennis as has a profound effect on my life. Cross Country has taught me that getting first place is not as important as the effort put into the race. Not all races can be won but giving it your best is a reward itself. Tennis was not as simple of a sport that expected it to be at all. From hitting the ball to weather tennis was an incredibly complex sport. I found it fascinating that changing the angle of the tennis racquet from 30 degrees would be a difference of almost half the court. Also power was never a key factor of any competition. It was all about strategy and consistency. During my junior year we were runner-up the Ohio Valley Cross Country League and during my senior year won Ohio Valley Athletic Conference in

Throughout my entire high school career, the best times I experienced happened when I was participating in Cross Country. Moreover, Cross Country has changed me in a way that nothing else has. After four years, the two best traits I was able to receive were those of leadership and perseverance.

Do I want to join the team or not, do I want to join the team or not. That's what was going through my mind when my mom brought cross country up for the first time. I was going to try out for the soccer team at Middle School South, but I was got sick before the second day of try outs, so I my answer just had to be yes.

Running was a part of my life between 2014 and 2016, when I was still a young middle school kid. I tried out for the track team, and I ran for my first time in March. Track and Field was a new experience for me, I had

Running is very good for humans in many different ways. It is a great way to get exercise, and a great way to meet new people. There are many positives, and some negatives, it is easy, enjoyable and makes humans more social, you can do it at anytime, and it relieves stress rather than give stress.
