In our groups we made a slide that showed what happend in the five days of the Ancitent Olympics. This was a Religous. They also worship the god of sky father of gods zeus one the  first day. On the seconed day they stated horse riding and chariot races were held. There were four-horse chariot and two-horse chariot races with distances from 2 miles up to 8 miles. The last event held was the pentathlon which included five events: running wrestling, long jump, discus and javelin. The day ended. Day 3 was the most religious day of the olympics festival. Priests would make animal sacrifices in the temple of zeus. In the afternoon the racing events were held. Runners ran a long race called the dolichos. Then sprints, which was 630 feet in distance. To end the day a public feast was held. 

First was wrestling, which was aimed at making the opponent fall. In the midday, boxing was held.  Boxers were often severely hurt, and in some cases killed. Pankration was the final combat event. This was a combination of boxing and wrestling. Everybody made their way to the temple of zeus with the winners leading the way. Before the festival a boy was chosen to cut a leafy branch from the ancient wild olive tree sacred to Zeus which was woven into wreaths. The winners would come forward and the Hellanodikai placed a wreath on the head of each winner. Then again, they ended the olympic festival feasting.

Hauora and Olmypics

In the olympics, atheletes are trained metally and physically, to prepare themselves for defeat or success. When all four walls are standing, it is important to have acceptance as athletes, weather they win or lose. It is important to embrace the times of accomplishments and pride, but it is fairly important to take time to learn from loses. When losing it is key to remember that the more mistakes, the more knowledgable and clever you become. Having negative mindset always brings, lost of confidence, self esteem stress motiviation and insecurites etc. When you learn to have self respect, humbleness  and strong walls, they will help you become calm in all situations(win/lose).
