Cris liked the fact that Addi wasn't one to shy away from doing something different. "Well let me know if you're ever interested to try rock climbing. We can always create a rock climbing wall in the Room of Requirements. You definitely have the arms for it," Cris grinned at Addi as he acknowledged her muscle showing effort.

Then he laughed when she informed him that she was even competitive when it came to running. "You know what? You are the second person I've met, who thinks running involves racing. I'm just as competitive too, but unlike the other sports I participate in, I run for leisure....right now," he had to reluctantly inform Addi.

"Hey what happened to the confidence and competitive nature you just displayed when talking about rock climbing and running with me? You have to believe that you'll be either the same standard you were last term or even better, when you prepare for your tryouts. Just think about it this way. You won't be the only one out of practice. The others will be too."

Cris hoped that what he was telling Addi, was enough to convince his new found friend that she should not lose confidence just yet.
