These events are scheduled every year in the same location or city, or by the same group or charity. It is a good way to raise money for a cause as well as to encourage physical fitness.

Of course, there are other events in addition to races.    4     During these events different schools will come to one location, and students will compete against each other in individual events. These might include distance runs or sprints (短跑), for example, among many others.

Dear Chris,

I learn that some people laugh at me for being overweight. Don’t be so worried about your figure.

I know a group calling HOOP from the Internet, which is established to be the voice of the overweight persons. It made up of a group of friendly and supportive people, all understanding the struggle of being overweight. So you will not feel lonely when you exercise. There are a plenty of activities and trainer who don’t push you to do what you dislike. With their support and encourage it’s easy for you to leave your comfort zone and try something new.

I would high recommend HOOP to you. Whether it’s to complete a personal challenge and start a healthier lifestyle, HOOP can really help you become the best version of you. Although you keep exercising, your figure will be good than before. Best wishes!

Yours,

Vivian
