Our
family is very active. Our family is doing sports on the amateur level.
Anyhow all members of our family are related to sport. We like jogging
every morning, my father, mother, my older sister Helen and I. We are
very friendly family and we do it all together all year round. It was
my mother, who made jogging a morning tradition of our family, when
she wasn’t able to get in her old dress. We also like to watch
national and international sport events or matches of football, ice – hockey,
basketball and tennis on TV. The major sport competition we like is
Olympic Games.
Except jogging we have other sport activities. My father is an avid chess
player. My mother prefer shopping, she calls it a kind of sport activity
for women. My sister prefers to get fit at home. She has a lot of books
and videocassettes with instructions how to do home exercise programmes.
As for me, I do not go in for sport professionally, but I want. I’m
keen on athletic. First time I
went to athletic centre several years ago.
Now I visit it almost everyday. For going in for sport I need comfortable
clothes and shoes of high quality. I have several pairs of trainers. It
is like a small collection of good shoes in my wardrobe. We buy it in a
special market. They are not so cheap, but last week I took part in competition
at our college and won the first prize. On winned money I bought a good
pair of trainers for going in for running.
The victories at competitions stimulate me to continue going in for sport.
And my triumph glad my parents and they are very proud for me. Athletic makes me strong and handsome and the most pleasant, that girls pay attention
to me and all these are only because of sport.
Besides athletic I like other kinds of sport. In general my choice of the
sports depends upon the season. In summer I like to swim in the river and
in winter I like to skate. Skating is a widespread activity among my friends.
