Athletics day

To my glory, and defeat, I proudly say that we had our annual athletics day. It was filled with agony, defeat, fails and determination. I had a really successful day, I came first in high jump, Second in 75 meter sprint, third in 100 meter sprints and 3rd in back knee throw. From my prospection of the day it was amazing.

My favourite event was high jump. Soaring over the high jump pole, I gladly get over and the game got more competitive. It was down to the top 2 me and Lepa. Lepa was first, he ran up slowly and built up speed, getting closer to the pole he rises his legs and jumps. He makes it. In my head i'm thinking “i’m not gonna make it” and then with a sudden burst of speed I take off and sadly i don't make it, twice in a row to be honest. My last attempt has come, I’m scared cause I think I can't make it. But then I make it, with all the strenght in my legs I force my self over, leaving my mate Lepa very shocked. Then it went up a level, I went first when I leaped over the pole I had made it and with relief I could say I did it. Lepa was up he was very scared knowing he wasn't going to make it first attempt he had failed, second attempt he had failed again third attempt he had also failed and it was a dream shatter for him he was gutted but happy that he had come second.

So I think athletics day was pretty awesome and I can't wait until next year because I will be in college.
