I have found that I spend more time outside than I realized because of the sports I play. Most of my time spent outside was playing sports, or sitting around waiting for games to start. Since I started taking this class I have tried to be more aware of my environmental surroundings and enjoy the nature around me. I have found that it is hard for me to focus on nature during sports because there is so much else going on. During my service learning at Koreshan I was able to focus on the environment around me and enjoy it.
Monday - 20 minutes; walking to and from class.
Tuesday - 1 hour and 20 minutes; intramural soccer game and walking to and from class.
Wednesday - 5 hours and 20 minutes; service learning at Koreshan State Park, and walking to and from class.
Thursday - 2 hours and 20 minutes; intramural flag football game and walking to and from class.
Friday - 6 hours; flag football tournament at FGCU
Saturday - 6 hours; flag football tournament at FGCU
Sunday - 4 hours; flag football tournament at FGCU
In seven days I spent a total of 25 hours and 20 minutes outside. For my current lifestyle I feel that this is a good amount of time but I also realize that much of this time is not an every week occurrence. For example, I spent five hours at Koreshan for class, and i spent 16 hours playing in a flag football tournament which does not happen every week. I am going to try to be more aware of my time outdoors and try to spend more time outdoors.
