When I started at San Diego State, everybody had to take a PE course each semester for their first two years. If you were confined to a wheelchair, they would put you in a wheelchair exercise class! I had zero registration priority, so all I could get was Basic Conditioning (high-falutin' PE-speak for lifting free weights and then running around the track).
Once I had earlier registration, I took archery, swimming, scuba, and canoe and kayak. I discovered that I had a talent for the wave-ski (the surf kayak you sit on and paddle into waves) and the standard one-man kayak. I was the only one in that class who learned how to do an Eskimo Roll.
All way more fun than Basic Conditioning, and essentially free rec activity that others had to pay a lot of money to enjoy. I even had fun doing the rescue breathing exercises in the scuba class, where for some reason I always ended up paired up with cute girls!
