Did you have a sports season this fall for your sport? If yes then what were some limitations you experienced or how was it different from how it usually was? If you didn’t have a sports season what did you do?
Yes we did have a season. It was different because we had to wear masks when we weren’t running so like at the startline and like right when we finished we had to put them back on. We also had to wear masks during practices when we weren’t running and on the buses we weren’t allowed to sit next to somebody we had to sit one person per seat. We weren’t allowed to do a lot of the gatherings like we would normally do. We weren’t allowed to have bigger meets. Most of the meets we did were like just school meets where we would only race one school instead of like three, four, five, or more for example. I think those were the biggest differences.
What do you think is a positive and negative from having a sports season or not having one with Covid?
So one positive was that because of Covid we didn't have school [in person] right? And we still had our sport. It was a lot easier for us to just get to the sport and to just worry about that sport for the day instead of our parents having to drive us more than once. It was just a lot nicer cause we didn’t have to see as many people during the day except for our one sports team. I guess it was more fun that way, but at the same time it wasn’t good because transportation was harder for a lot of people. Buses are how they would get to the sport because they would already be at school so they would go down to the track or wherever we’d meet. They didn’t have that so our parents had to all take us to the sports, which was kinda hard for some families I think.
