Extreme Physical Education | Wednesday | Period 1

"Welcome back," Fraser greeted once everyone had settled down. "I hope you don't think I'm going to ease up because we're a few days away from Parent's Weekend. If anything, performing some strenuous physical activity might help you ease some of the stress you might be feeling. I don't think any of you should worry though because I can't remember anything majorly bad happening at these events."

He smiled and punched a few buttons to get a simulation ready. "Today, we're going hiking. Hiking is walking in natural environments. That's all it is. There are different levels of hiking, of course. Taking a leisurely walk on a hiking trail is a lot different than hiking up a mountain trail. Depending on the type of hike, equipment can include water, food, a compass, sunglasses, sunscreen, clothes, flashlight, first aid kit, fire starter, knife and a map in a backpack. It's also smart to wear a pair of sturdy hiking boots since the terrain can be unpredictable."

To that end, Fraser motioned to a table where several pairs of new hiking boots were lined up. "Today, we're going to walk some of the Appalachain Trail. There is absolutely no way we'd be able to walk the whole thing so we're just going to find a nice, fairly low impact trail and hike. Please feel free to hike with each other, explore the various flora and fauna, and enjoy the view. Please do not get off the hiking trail. All right? Have fun."

Fraser got the sim going and gestured for everyone to get to hiking.

Hiking. Now this was something Dolf was used to.

So really, you couldn't blame him for being in an excellent mood as he got going. Walking like this always made him think fondly of freedom.

Walking seemed less likely to lead to sudden death than many of the other activities in class so far. Juliet was philosophical about accepting the stroll.

Even if her boots were hideous.
