Oh, haha, I just remembered one more example. In grade 8 my entire class participated at the local cross country meet. Needless to say I came last, but it was a mixed race. Every girl in the race beat me, and there was over 100 people in the race! On the other hand, the only exposure to track and field that I had was in grade 5. I remember running a 6.5s ht 50m in the school yard, long jump was 3.2m and high jump was 1.3m. Because I was at a small school in Ontario at the time, no one noticed I guess.
