Evaluation

I think Peter Snell is the most inspiring athlete because he is such a tremendous motivator. I call him the first Usain Bolt. Just to throw this in

to evaluation out of 10. 10 being the best and 1 being the worst I think that peter snell is a 10 in being an inspiring athlete because he used to say (This is the research bit) He always used to say if you can’t be an athlete be a athletic supporter.

Great evaluation Chloe! Well done on completing all of your tasks this week.
