Pentathalon

[GGuy5]

I have never done this event!! I am in Division C, if you would look. I feel that Science Olympiad should focus on science, as people who join it are probably doing it because they enjoy science. I really don't want to say this again.

then why are you wasting your time on this forum if you aren't even in the event?

Pentathlon is an okay event to do somewhere else! It's not an SO event! And don't say that I'm saying this cause I'm not athletic. I'm more athletic than most kids at my school.

Because he wants to express his opinion on this event. You don't need to be in this event to know that it's stupid.

yes croman, it is kinda dumb but i like having something kinda physical

[croman74]

But if you want something physical, it doesn't have to be as an SO event. If you feel like being physical that day, just bring a ball to play with between your events.

My point exactly.

can't play ball running across UT campus with only 15min to get to your event though

that is a good point. a lot of people think that they suggested this event just because it was a good reason for people who are strongly passionate in science get some "exercise" and physical activity. it's not a good reason.

Yeah this was exactly what i was trying to get across...i never meant to offend anyone

You probably have time towards the end of the day. Or if you want to do something physical, just don't do SO.

it is still fun to me to have a mix of both

[crzyliljellybean]

alright this is getting ridiculous....if u want a mix of both go play a sport or something and participate in SO....i mean rele the physical activities they incorporate into the event don't even justify exercising....fyi pentathalon is not meant to be part of sci o.....physical activity has nothing to do with science. That is meant to be done at an other time. So please leave if your gunna casue problems becuase ppl who like to keep science apart from "exercising" shud not be criticized.
