RUN ALL THE WAY!

Hello people! Welcome again to another post. Today, well actually not today but on the 7th of March, we had an athletics day! (Which was on a Thursday) Though this was probably meant to be posted that week, I have to admit I was really tired and lazy. Anyways I just want to share what we had done. Let's get started!

(I am sorry that there are no photos)

Athletics this year was a fun and bright experience. This year again we had to pick either competitive or Social. So in competive, you compete with other people within your age. In social you get to participate in all of the events meaning the 5 main events, like sprints (60m), high jump, long jump, shot put and discuss.

Competitive events started at 9:00am,  and my first event was at 9:35am, which means I had an I lot of time to warm up and stretch. But my friend was unlucky and her first even was at 9:10am, which was shot put. After the shot put was finished we went to our second event, she and I had the same even at this time so we both went together we only got to jump once since we had to go to our next event which was again the same.

Our next event was at 9:45am, and it was 200m run/sprints (?), we had it with my other friend which was a bit older than us. We had to wait like 4 minutes before it was our turn. I was in the first race with two other people, one was my friend and the other was another friend. Our teacher (P.E teacher), got us ready told us what we needed to do. So just like that, we fired off those things that start a race (?), I don't really know what it is called. But we took off after that, after a few seconds I had already arrived at the finish line as first place.

Now onto the next event which was at 10:50am, it was high jump, I wasn't with my friend this time because she didn't think she could do it. So I jumped the first 2 well, but at the third, I failed 3 times, I think it was over 1m high. I personally think I did a good job because people tell I am quite short.

Onto the next event which was discus. I have to be honest I am very bad at discus though I still tried it out it was actually very fun on the first throw I got it out of the line which I was pretty disappointed about. But the next one I think I did a good job. Overall I think I did quite good but I think I could do better than that.

Onto my last event which I had to wait 2 hours for, it was the 1500m run/ Long distance. Just to tell you guys this is very hard, it was also very windy which made it very hard to run. This was at 1:30pm. So I think it took about 10/5 minutes for us to finish. At the first 3 laps, I was doing very well and I was in the lead. But on the 4th lap, the wind was really strong and it pushed me like pushed me out of the line, I may have gotten weaker due to that. But overall I have to say I did a great job.

To say the day was terrible would be a lie since it was a fun and bright day, people did have a lot of fun and I am pretty sure everyone enjoyed it.
