Haha yeah I did.. The thing is that it's not very prestigious. Like, one of my friends last year got it when he was absent the day of testing.. unless it's not based on physical testing.. correct me if I'm wrongmnstrviola wrote:i got the presidential fitness award ^_^ (the blue patch thing)

I go to school at Cerro Villa MS. A neighboring school of El Rancho Charter, a once dominating science olympiad team. Rebecca Black goes to El Rancho. It's Friday everyday there. ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)

Re: Athletic Olympians?
I think it varies upon schools. We had to run a mile in less then 8 minutes, be able to do about 30 pushups and like 50 situps (you know, where there's a soundtrack of a girl saying "down, up! down,up!"), do a shuttle run in less then, like, 8 seconds, and pass the sit and reach test. It is really hard ![Razz :P](./images/smilies/icon_razz.gif)

i like the power it gives you when you surge up and glide a short distance over the water

Re: Athletic Olympians?
I'm extremely into sports... I'm good at basketball, fine swimmer, okay at track, watch a lot (Like most every game) of college football but not very good at it and I'm a good ultimate frisbee player.

Yeah, I'll give you that for division C. I hereby claim "the most athletic Science Olympian" for division B. Let the debate begin.Swag wrote:I still maintain my claim as most athletic Science Olympian in the nation. It's a fact.
