Presidential Fitness Night

Image
By
March 6, 2013 was an evening of stretching, running and reaching. The Pathfinders had the opportunity to show how fast, and flexible they are by participating in the Presidential Fitness Challenge.

The Physical Fitness Test recognizes participants for their level of physical fitness in five activities:
  • Curl-ups (or partial curl-ups)
  • Shuttle run
  • Endurance run/walk
  • Pull-ups (or right angle push-ups or flexed-arm hang)
  • V-sit reach (or sit and reach)
We know that just completing all five activities is an accomplishment. To celebrate this fitness feat,  three awards are offered to the participants, based on their scores.

Presidential Physical Fitness Award
Wow! These kids are seriously fit! This award recognizes participants who achieve an outstanding level of physical fitness. To earn this award, participants must score at or above the 85th percentile on all five activities.

National Physical Fitness Award
Impressive! These kids clearly have a great fundamental level of fitness. Participants earn this award for scoring above the 50th percentile on all five activities.
Participant Physical Fitness Award
Woo hoo! There’s room for improvement, but these participants showed great heart. Participants earn this award if they participate in all five activities, and one or more of their scores fall below the 50th percentile.
Here are some pictures of the event. Good job Pathfinders!
