Exercise avoidance was NOT possible. Skinned knees/elbows, girls hit in the head during dodge ball (crying), fat kids who couldn't run fast (picked last for the team)....God I miss the smell of napalm in the morning!
Sounds a lot like recess in the 1980's...minus the bundling up part as I went to grade school in SoCal. (Allen Avenue Elementary School in San Dimas.)
