I'm worried about sports day!!?

Question

I've been told that i'm doing the 'cyclo-trials' which is basically riding a bike through an obsticle course. I can ride a bike but the school bikes are way too big for me as i'm quite small. Last year I made a fool of my-self so I'm going to find it hard to put myself through it again. Everyone will laf at me! :( What shud I do? Shud I drop out or face it?

Answer 1

I think you should face it.... once you've done it you'll feel proud of yourself. And if people do laugh at you, they just have nothing better to do, atleast your taking part :)

I did to much running away in school and I wish I'd faced some things... not facing it will only be making you worry about it AFTER the event's even happened, atleast by doing it, its over and done with :)

Though, I dont think the school should be alloing you to use a bike to big for you =/ Though I suppose schools are like that really now! lol.

But good luck with any decision you take annyway :)

dear sports day worrier,

sports day will probably have plenty of other kids making mistakes,  you will not b the only one!!  if someone makes fun of you, ignore it completely,    if needed go talk to your friends,

the people who might laugh at you, feel powerful when they laugh and you get affected,  even your  good friends might laugh and hope to feel powerful, i know mine do,  SO FACE THE CHALLENGE AND DON'T BACK OUT!!  YOU CAN DO IT!  if you need any more answers on anything  e-mail me at [e-mail]

Answer 3

Sorry to hear the bike size issue. Just do it though. Make sure to say loudly " what the heck, these bikes are way too big, all cyclists know you need a bike that fits to ride well!".

Your story reminds me of the time we were running the 50. The gym teacher in his infinite wisdom said we couldn't wear our gym shoes outside. Being the fastest in the class I was bummed out cause I had loafers on that day. Needless to say I wasn't the fastest that day!
