 This thursday, we went to the Field house. It was a beautiful day, sunny and comfortable temperature.We met in Old Capital Mall, and we took a bus which is Red Line in front of the Mall station.We got off secont station whrer is near the UIHC, and it took about 7min. The outward appearance of Field  house is old, and not so clean. After we entered, we had to show student ID card to get in the gym. In side of Field house is amazing. There are many activities what we can do, such as basket ball, table tennise, squash, swimming pool, badminton, weight traing, and running. Especially basket court is great!! There are at least 10 court and clean. We can borrow some stuffs which you need to play at the entrance desk. We played badminton. It was very fun. After we use some stuff, we return to the same place. It is all free. In conclusion, this gym is easy to go, and you can go with out bring stuff, so It is good plece to visit after class.

After the courses of this Thursday, we visited the Field House as a group. Speaking of the gymnasium, it is a quite old one, because I can see from the old-fashioned decoration. For instance, there are many historical famous Iowa athletes' pictures on the wall, and some weird outdated paintings on the second floor. It's just like the gym from the high school movie of 90 century. However, it is not an overstatement that the equipment and environment has been maintained very well through many years. The clean and refreshing atmospheres just made us want to do exercises here. As a result, we borrowed badminton from the gym, which was completely free, and played it for about an hour. To my surprise, the floorboard of Field House is not made of rubber; it is the traditional wooden floor, which really comforted my feet without any noise like rubber one. In addition, we also visited the swimming pool basketball field and squash courts that are definitely good places to do some exercises. In a nutshell, Field House should be a great gym to go if you are looking for comfortable atmospheres.

This Thursday, we go to the field house. Actually, it the first time I went to a gym like this. Field house is an amazing gym! It is the old gym in the school. There have badminton court, basketball court squash and two swimming pool etc. In China, the school gym always only open for school team, we do not have the chance to take many kind of exercise at the school gym. The school only have basketball court and swimming pool for student. The field house is old, but the facility in there is still good. Maybe Chinese school have more student than American, some of our school gym look like more dirty and worse than field house. Compare with the other gym in Iowa University, field house may not the best, but it is most historical gym. I saw the old news and painting on the wall and trophies in a big cabinet. The history is the characteristic of the field house.
