After clocking superior times, Kevin Stokes and Andy Sands discuss their first attempt at completing the run. puff, , unghli' uffl puffl ungh!'La quote which could only come f from a boy who has just fin- ished the senior fitness run. ,Designed by physical education teacher Link Bogart, the fitness run is a military-style challenge which combines cross-country strength and fitness. In other words, it's sheer ex- haustion. The run is not only a 1.6 mile tour of the school grounds-several ac- companying activities make it even more interesting, as well as tiring: 100 jumping jacks, 10 military, clap- hands push-ups, a 30-yard two- legged hop, a 30-yard hands-and-feet crawl Knot as easy as it seems-after running a mile, try it sometimel, a 30-yard backward rung and two fence vaults. Despite the run's difficulty, Mr. Bogart notes that most students have responded favorably to running the course. They take pride in com- pleting the run and improving their times. Mr. Bogart keeps a chart of running times for each student. Although the course was intended to take 25 minutes, the average sen- ior clocks 14.46 minutes. The fastest times hover around 11 minutes. Mr. Bogart emphasizes that the run is not for conditioningg seniors complete the course four to five times a year to test their physical ability. PE teachers also want to mo- tivate students to exercise on their own. Boys and girls should take pride in their bodies and stay in shape after they leave school, concludes Mr. Bogart. 1 Juniors and sophomores beware. In the fu- ture, Mr. Bogart plans to introduce a similar test of conditioning for underclassmen. Seniors!217
