As the part of the cas project, the school had organised a cross country event in which we had to jog and needs to complete to be counted as a cas experience .We had three events in this service, the first event was 3km jogging and it took me around 20 minutes to complete it. It was 1.5 km jogging and than they put pink powder behind our shirt and than return jogging of 1.5km. We did the same thing for event 2 which was 5 km and for event 3 which was also 5 km. When i took part in the first event of the cas service it was not that hard as i thought it would be, in the starting it was easy and in the middle my legs started to pain a little bit i needed to endure it to overcome myself and in the end of it i was relieved that i was able to finish it. In second event it was every difficult my legs were paining a lot, it was very hard to endure all the pain my legs were feeling it was so painful that i wasn’t able to walk properly but i needed to superpass myself so I try to overcome the pain and was able to finish it.In this CAS i used LO1 – Identify own strengths and develop areas for growth Screen reader support enabled., LO2 – Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills.

LO1 Identify own strengths and develop areas for growth

The strength that i found out was that i was able to complete the cross country event and was able to endure it. The weakness that i found was that i was not maintaining the same phase and was slowing down it means i need to work on my speed. I feel that i need to work little more to overcome my weakness that i found out in during the end of the event. It is important to know your strength and weakness because you will get to know what you are good at and what you are not good at it helps you to make yourself better and surpass your limits. Overcoming my weakness will help me learn more about myself and get better and better and increase my endurance rate.

LO2 Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process

The challenge that i faced was maintaining the same speed for a long period of time. It was challenging as in the start of the 5km i had a good speed and start after sometime my speed started to decrease and was getting tired it was an hectic experience. I did something like it before when i was in 8th and was in better condition as i was enthusiasm and energetic and i am working on overing coming the challenge. If i am not able to overcome the challenge than i will try to start from a normal speed from starting to end and i feel good that i have undertaken the problem. Finding new challenges makes me feel more need for improvement.

LO4 Show commitment to and perseverance in CAS experiences

The activity was divided into 4 sectors 3,5,5,7 km and we need to jog huge distances which i was not use to that made the activity hard. It made me feel like i need to increase my endurance rate and overcome it in the future if it is possible to do in limited time. The commitment that was required was high rate of endurance and to be good at maintaining a good speed. it is not easy to overcome this problem as i rarely attend a event that requires high rate of endurance in the past 2 years earlier it was easy now it is not as easy as it was. Commitment makes people stronger as they wind out their weakness.
