Athletics


 Last week we had athletics and the events were high jump,long jump,throw and sprints.

I really enjoyed the high jump because it took quite a while and I was really nervous because I had won last year so there was pressure on me. I knew that I could jump the bar because it was only 1.2 metres high. I have jumped 1.4 metres before, so that was a piece of cake.

Something that was a bit tricky, was in the 200 metre sprint, when I was a couple of metres away from the finish line. Mason was coming up behind me real fast and I was winded, but I carried on running and beat him by a few milliseconds.

I am really proud of all of the places I got throughout the day. I got 2nd in the 50,100 and 200 metre race and first in the ball throw, long jump and high jump.
