In tap we shuffled-off-to-Buffalo. We danced beginners' steps and headed to fame and fortune as Gene Kelly ll. Playing new games everyday, Recreational Games broadened our skills and techniques for various sports, from tetherball to ping pong. We hooked shots in a second quarter of basketball. We slugged the ball into left field to make a homerun in softball. We organized plays and faked passes in Football Two. In third level advanced courses we developed our own styles. Smashing an unreturnable birdie took a little more than just plopplng it over a badminton net. Knowing special strides and breathing exercises helped track stars run continuous miles without overworklng calves and lungs. Acing a serve and psyching out our opponent by calling her plays before she made them in tennis required effort, concentration, rationalization, and experience. Learning rules and regulations, developing skills, and strategies, advancing techniques, and competing with others trained us for the games we would play in the future. We used those basioor advanced skills we learned in PE. Whether we knew it or not, exercise was a learning process we experienced everyday. We did it because it was fun. We tackled relatives in family football games and courted friends in Sunday afternoon doubles matches, We called it our hobby. Sailing in the summer sun tanned our bods to a golden brown. Snow skiing tickled our noses while plotting down the Colorado mountains. We labeled it sparetime thrills. We bowled Saturday nights with friends after working eight hour shifts. Sidewalk surfing let the cool spring breeze blow through our hair naturally. Among friends we called it Friday night follies. We went roller and ice skating on dates. We went stag to meet someone to share Friday night fun with. We knew it as physical therapy. We did calisthenics to shape up mind and body. We jogged daily to relax and tone muscles. Not only did we swim laps because the water was refreshing or hike Mt. Bonnell energy 5 exercise 177
