MY FAVOURITE SPORTS
Sport and games play an important role in my life. Since my childhood I like on such sports as running, tennis, table tennis and badminton. When I was six, I get my first bike from my parents.Now I like riding on bicycle for longs trips with my friends. I do this sport active. My bike is very good and modern. I need plimsolls and good-quality training suit. I like cycling because: I feel very good, I have fun, I am heathly.
My favourite sportsman is Miroslav Šatan. He is a hockey player. He won the gold medail in Petrohrad for Slowakia. I like him, because he is famous player and very good man.
Sports and games are very important for active relaxation and are also important for our physical and mental health. Doing sports keeps us healthy and fit. Sports develop our patience, willpower, endurance and help us to lose some weigth.
