What's up, everyone? Enjoying your midterms? No? I thought not.

Lucky for those of you taking my class, I happen to be feeling generous. Take note, people. This is a once in a term event here!

I'd like to offer you unlucky souls a deal. See, I've been trying to get a little fitter over the past few months. Can't use magic to solve every problem you have, right? Right! I want to see how much progress I made.

That's where you come in.

You beat me in a race? You get an A on your midterm! I'll even put it in writing so you have a paper trail. The only thing I ask is that I get to pick the time. I'm a busy man, you know.

Feel free to ask any questions you want. And don't feel put out just because you don't see any replies. I'm screening all comments in order to protect my students' previous privacy.

((Please see the OOC post here!))

Avery if you wish to train there is a fairly extensive gymnasium on our campus that you can use without compromising your grading ethics.

Assuming you have any.

Of course I have them! Ever heard of a practical exam?

[peace_keeper]

But a race? Really?

What's wrong with injecting a little harmless fun into the lesson plan?

This is a school and we are trying to prevent the end of the world! It's a very serious matter!

You're absolutely right.

Unfortunately, attempts to remind them that the world is going to end tend not to go very well in my experience. So tricking them into learning something new it is.

You're welcome to take the challenge too if you would like. Consider it a method of testing yourself on my area of expertise.
