Maybe you've been part of a group when you felt like you were better suited to another. This is something that has possibly fell upon all of us and "Divergent" decided to get into detail about it. It's easily one of the most gripping science fiction narratives I was able to experience and I think that the cast of characters was my favorite part. What about the cases of physical activity, though? I'd have to imagine that obstacle event racing could have played a great part.
It's apparent that obstacle event racing is going to take a great deal of work. In fact, the level of competition shown in events the likes of Spartan Race can tell you that if you're not willing to put forth the effort, you're not going to be able to succeed. The book displays this sense of vigor as well, seeing as how the members of each faction have to work hard in order to secure being rankings. They can be attained through how strong or weak members are, as displayed in the book.
In "Divergent," we hear about the events of the story from the perspective of main hero Beatrice Prior. Ever since she was born, she was part of Abnegation, a faction cemented in the idea of giving. When she turned sixteen, however, she denounced Abnegation in favor of Dauntless, which is more rooted in the idea of bravery and daringness. However, she has to work to attain such bravery, which is a challenge considering she lacks the same physically imposing nature that her peers will sometimes exercise.
Can we honestly say that those who have physical strength are able to rank well? Beatrice may not have been the first person who one would kick to be on a baseball team but it seemed like she was able to use her cunning and skills she attained to her advantage. Al might have had a great deal of strength from the standpoint of a brute but his emotions were not kept together well. Peter's ruthless nature ultimately went to his head, even though most people would desire his ability to fight with tenacity.
It's clear that there is a high level of strength associated with obstacle event racing but this can be seen in many ways. Physically moving through hazards can be done if you commit yourself to enough training in the gym, for example. Does this necessarily mean that the bravery to tackle any obstacle is going to accompany this? I believe that an element such as nerve is something that you're either born with or a certain type of element that you build up as you become older.
