Around the grounds

[Mark Stone]

Mark was running around like he did every morning. He liked to keep fit so he ran for at least one hour every single day, excluding the weekends. He ran shirtless as he found himself running up a hill he stopped at the top to catch his breath.

Panting heavily Mark felt a cold breeze pass him sending a shiver up his spine. He looked out over the water that was crashing against the cliff below. Mark suddenly got a flash back of the last time he was on the cliffs in his last school where he and his best friend had had a fight and ended up off the cliff. The only difference was that Mark pulled himself up and Tyson slipped off and died.

Mark shook his head to get rid of that trail of thoughts. He sat down and put the clean shirt in his hand on him to stop him from getting cold. He stretched his legs out in front of him so they didnt cramp up from Lactic acid or anything. He leant back on the green grass and shut his eyes as he listened to the sea and felt the wind blow past him gently

 

[Joe Walker]

Joe was out on a run around the school. He had recently decided that he needed to get fit. And maybe he'd meet some new friends along the way to.

As Joe found himself out of breath, he stopped, then scratched his head as he looked down, to see an older looking boy led on the grass. He smiled at him, then thought he should speak before he was accused of aimlessly staring. "Hey there." Enjoying the sun are you?" He said in a friendly voice.

 

[Izzy Shale]

Izzy had been running and crying for what felt like ages but couldnt of been, she had been running from that second year bully Jerrod. He knew how to get to her and she didnt like it. she didnt know what it would be like if she didnt do something that she was told to do all she knew was that if she didnt do it steve would get that message and she didnt want to put caley through that. she stumbled as she was running ,she fell over a person she didnt know where she was going everythig was blury.she fell to the ground but quickly gatherd herself to gether and stood up wiping the tears away from her face.

 

[Mark Stone]

Mark looked up when he heard a voice. He saw a younger boy above him. For once Mark recognised someone. Mainly as he had seen this boy in the common room as he passed through. Mark laughed and nodded. "Yeah i am indeed. Just taking a break from my run. I have no lessons today so this is my work out day. Need to my body in shape." He said patting his six pack although it wasnt visible under his shirt as it was quite loose. Mark was naturally well built in his metabolism but he liked to keep it that way.

Mark was about to sit up to talk to the boy when he felt someone walk into him. He looked to his side to see another younger student. He quickly got onto his feet to help her up. " Oh are you ok?" He asked the girl

 

[Joe Walker]

Joe laughed as the guy patted his stomach. He seemed to have a six-pack. It wasn't something that Joe would usually take any notice of it, but this guy seemed to be intent on talking about his body. "Yeah, I just wish my cardio-vascular endurance would improve...A mile's run and I'm done for." Joe said, he had always known quite a lot about the body.

Joe ran over to help the girl up as he saw her trip over Mark. He crouched down next to Mark. "Hey, are you alright?" He asked, with a sensitive smile.

 

[Izzy Shale]

She watched as the two older boys talked she wiped away the rest of the tears and took the boys hand as they came over to help her up.Izzy smiled and said"i think so, well i hope so." she listened to them talking about sport related stuff and it all confused her. "yes im okay, i just tripped, "she said tears still running freely down her face.

 

[Mark Stone]

Mark was happy that the girl was ok. He looked up to the younger boy and smiled. " Oh no my Cardiovascular endurance is good. I can keep performing well for long periods of time. I have been working out for a while now so i have a good stroke volume and cardiac output. Although i have leant not to stop i mean after i got ill one time reversibility kicked in and i couldnt train as hard." He said walking over to the small boy. " So whats your name kid, im Mark Stone. Just transferred from Durmstrang."

 

[Joe Walker]

Joe smiled to himself, this guy could probably help him with his new found fitness training. "Oh wow, you sound like your in good shape, maybe you could help me out a little? I would really like to have more stamina, I fail every time at the 12 Minute Cooper Run." Joe laughed. He found it weird talking about his fitness to a guy that he had only just met. He was glad when the guy introduced himself. "Oh, well it's nice to meet you Mark. I'm Joe...I'm in my 2nd year at Hogwarts...I'm in Hufflepuff." He said, holding his hand out for Mark to shake.

 

[Mark Stone]

Mark laughed slightly as the little boy introduced himself and held out his hand. It seemed like an old this for such a young boy to be doing. Never the less Mark took the boys hand and shook it before saying anything else. " Well its nice to meet you two and you should use progression if you want to build on your stamina. Progression and over load are the best ways to train for that sort of stuff." Mark was constantly pushing himself further, he liked to know he could keep beating himself at his own game

 

[Izzy Shale]

Izzy slowly walked over to wher the boys were now stood talking. she didnt know whatthey were on about,she knew it was sport related but she didnt know what, she looked at them blankly. Both of them were taller than herself but one of them looked younger than she did. she looked down at he pad in her hands and then back up again.

 

[Joe Walker]

Joe smiled at Mark. He liked him already. He was cool, and was giving him tips on how to improve. "Yeah, I have recently been trying to use the FITT principle. Ya knowww, Frequency, Intesity, Time, and Type..." Joe giggled immaturely. "But I wanna learn some muggle sports like football to. So I think Progression and Overload could fit into my SPORT principle...but yeah, thanks for the advice mate...maybe we could run together some time?" Joe suggested. It was surprising just how much Joe knew about Health and Fitness, and about how the body works.

Joe looked at the girl and smiled as she approached them. She didn't appear to be about to say anything so Joe spoke. "Heyyy." He said awkwardly. "I do hope your okay now." He said, in a friendly voice, as his smile widened a little.

 

[Izzy Shale]

"hi.."she said nervously"im izzy"she said she listened as the boy spoke,"i guess im ok just trouble with second year slytherins."she said she didnt want to go into to much detail but would say if he asked.she began to smile she felt like the two boys may be the right people to talk to but she didnt say anything.
