This experience was great and not only that it was helpful for me and my friends who are in my school's cross-country team. The way how I got involved in helping them out was basically me trying to relax before the next day in which I had to take the SAT. One of my friends suggested freeing my mind from things so it could be fresh when I had to take the SAT by joining him and our other friend who was also on the team on their run. Unfortunately, I'm not much of a runner so I was decided to not go, but they really wanted me to go, so eventually decided to take my bike which was ok to them. When we finally met again for the run I came up with the idea that me riding on the bike will be helpful and beneficial for all of us. The reason why is because I could ride at a constant pace and they could try to match it or even surpass it. This was beneficial for all us because of one we were doing something other than playing video games or watching tv, we exercising which keeps our bodies healthy, and we all helped each other keep a certain pace without using so much energy.
As a clarification, this experience was put under service along with activity and creativity because even though I'm not helping out at some shelter or doing tutoring with students, I believe a service is where we help people in a beneficial manner or because we just simply want to help without thinking or even wanting a reward and also that you are willing to take time out of your schedule to help. In my case, I helped my friends keep a certain pace and even timed them to see how long they could keep it up and that also applied to me since I also wanted to how long I could keep a certain pace on the bike. At the end of the day, I learned that I had to keep working hard on keeping a certain pace and also that I had to work on finding a way to you use less energy on going uphill which also applied to my cross-country friends because "hills are the worst enemy for a runner or a biker". Overall, I really enjoyed helping them out in any way that could and I really appreciated them for letting me join in their run and sort of be like a coach to them and to myself.
