    I’m one of those few lucky people that finds it relatively easy to exercise (and be decently good at it), so I was often that weird dweeb that loved DBZ that would win in sports day, score in football games, make the top four consistently in tennis, win the 1500m, etc. I was that weird kid that loved the bleep test, because it was something I was good at.

    My experience was very similar in PE. Popular people would get cheered on, I’d dominate them, and it would be met with a mixture of indifference and annoyance that I wasn’t unfit like everyone else I hung around with to discuss the intricacies of Neon Genesis Evangelion at lunch time.

      That sounds really weird to me. Nobody cheered when I had PE because nobody gave a fuck. The only cheers you would hear were sarcastic. Nobody gave a fuck since everyone who cared for sports was a member of a sports club outside of school and they’d rather be training at the club than waste time and energy in PE.
