During the pandemic, I had lost my stamina and the ability to do any extensive physical activity. To regain my stamina and strength, I decided to cycle.

LO2: Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process
There were several challenges I faced during this activity. The first is time management, I had online school starting from 9 am to almost 4 pm, so I had time to cycle before school or after 4 pm. After a continuous 7 hours of online school, I’d get exhausted; hence, the only time I had to cycle was before school in the early morning. Cycling before school was extremely challenging as I had to manage time in a way that I get home on time to bathe and relax before school starts.

LO3 & LO4: Demonstrate how to initiate and plan a CAS experience & Show commitment to and perseverance in CAS experiences
Planning was required to complete this activity. Since I had to manage in a way to have time before school to bathe and relax, I had to figure out routes according to the time limit. Waking up early every morning was hectic and would rarely make me stay up till sunset, which affected the tasks and assignments that were supposed to be completed. To complete these assignments on time, I decided to go every alternate morning.
