Not as much a miss as you portray, considering that:
1. It is mandatory at least one Physical Education class in public high schools (at least in Florida), and if I remember right, middle school as well.
2. Not only do colleges and universities have complete gymnasiums, many of them have enormous staudiums and fields.
The one miss that I do agree with is "A man or woman unable to walk ten miles at a stretch will be regarded as a weakling."
- rsheridan6 17y agoThat's the big miss. The people from 1900 would be shocked at how fat we are, not how strong we are.
- nfnaaron 17y agoMy son goes to a public middle school in Colorado, and each student only has Physical Education for half the year. They also only study foreign language for half a year. The two halves of the student body trade at mid-year. The academic schedule is too busy to allow for all-year PE and FL. I expect PE to be uncommon some time soon-ish. Besides, PE is too hard when you're fat.
