My Challenge
I am sure you can clap one hundred times, I am positive you can jump one hundred times if you had to. I’m really sure you can say your name one hundred times but can you do one hundred pushups?
Do you know anyone who can do one hundred push ups non stop? Well that is my goal to do one hundred push ups. I think this is going to be a tough challenge but it's going to be a good challenge for me because it will help me get stronger.
I decided to train three four times a week for about twenty to thirty minutes. A few weeks ago when I started practicing I use to get up to 20 push ups but now I am up to thirty. By next week I reckon I’m gonna be able to do 45.
It's not only me that got a challenge it is every one in my classroom. We are all doing different challenges some people are doing skipping, running and other things. My teacher and I are doing the same challenge. We all have to try achieve our challenges before this term ends.
I have a feeling I am going to achieve my goal and I hope that every person in my class is going to achieve their challenges.

Taekwondo
I did some research to find some facts about this particular sport and this is what I discovered. This sport is a Korean martial art and its also the national sport of South Korea. It's also used by the South Korean military as part of trainings. I was surprised when I herd that.
It has heaps of moves in it like blocking, kicking, punching and open handed strikes as well as take downs and many more.
This sport is mainly about self defence and its really good for fitness training. Its probably my favourite event in the 2012 olympics.
Its so popular that its seen in movies with Chuck Norris, Jean Claude Van Damme and Tony Jaa as well as many action Hong Kong films.
I just can't wait till the olympics Taekwondo begins its gonna be exciting. Good luck to all the people competing in The 2012 olympics.
