MacFit Challenge puts fitness levels to the test

Posted on November 22, 2023

The fitness levels of Macleans College students were recently tested in the MacFit Challenge, held as part of the MCert Physical Education course.

The students ran a 3.5 km course around Macleans Park, which included an agility course, carrying kettlebells up a hill and rowing 500 m on an erg machine. Prior to the event, the students threw a medicine ball which counted towards their final placing.

The 2023 winner of the girls’ event was Rhianna Burt (Snell House) who completed the course. The 2023 winner of the boys’ event was Ben Oxford (Kupe). Ben set a new course record, completing the event in 15 minutes and 50 seconds.
