    Virtual kickoff time!
    Name and what I do: Jim Hagemann and I am a PE teacher. 
    Recent habit I’ve changed: Exercising more to help keep me mentally sane. 
    Favorite Place: My favorite place is the ocean. Specially Hamoa Beach in Hana Maui. I am always motivated to help pick up trash on beaches alongside my wife Tia. 
    How has the mass quarantine affected the environment:  Everything has seemed to slow down.  Less people are driving cars and more seem to be walking, running, or biking.
