I hope PE teachers get the message because I have had to do a lot of extra encouraging to get my kids out of the mindset that “running sucks.” I seriously love the idea of working at a level that feels good for general well-being versus the punishment perspective
Me too!! PE has a lot to answer for. I still have the target mile times for a 14-year-old boy engrained in my head as something to aim for. It's surprisingly liberating to have all my apps default to the metric system so the numbers, if I have to look at them, carry less emotional weight.
