Extreme Physical Education | Wednesday | Period 1
Today's class was the only one that wouldn't take place in the Danger Shop so hopefully the students enjoyed their one week of relaxation. The next several months would be intense but fun, hopefully.
"Good morning," he said, smiling at the assembled class. "I'm Constable Benton Fraser and this is Extreme Physical Education. I hope you're all in the right class. The aim of this particular class is to allow students to get exercise outside the normal parameters of a physical education class. To do this, we'll be utilizing the Danger Shop quite often to take you to more demanding and intense environments and letting you experience different sports that you can't typically experience on our island. For this class, please wear comfortable clothes and be prepared to work hard. The activities are going to be physically demanding but exhilarating. Just to give you a brief taste, we'll be covering kayaking, hiking, rock climbing, dogsledding, sandboarding and many others. Along with getting exercise, this class should expose some of you to sports that you may have never heard of before. Perhaps this will lead to new hobbies for some of you."
Again, Fraser hoped that would be true.
"Today though, we're going to do introductions just so I can learn more about you and you can learn more about me. We're a small class and I hope this helps us all get to know each other a little better so we can help each other out during some of our future lessons. So, please tell me your name, your age, and the most extreme sport you've ever competed in. My name is Benton Fraser and I'm quite older than all of you. The most extreme sport I've ever competed in wasn't competitive. A few years back, my partner, Ray Kowalski and I, set off to find the Hand of Franklin reaching for the Beaufort Sea using only one dog and a sled. Conditions were frigid and unforgiving but the journey was spectacular."
He smiled, clearly nostalgic for a few moments. Then, he leaned against the desk and nodded at the class.
"Now, it's your turn. Go ahead."

And maybe he'd toss some hockey in because he liked it.
