NPS Athletics

Monday was Athletics day. I was in the 12+ girls group. We had High Jump first and jumped 101 cm. It was quite cold and windy so I had to put long pants on. Half way through High Jump we had to go to the 100 m sprint. I was in an easy heat with Elizabeth. Elizabeth came first, Storm came 2nd, Samantha came 3rd and I came 4th. Then after that it was Long Jump. We had no practise jumps so it made it harder. I didn't do as well as I usually do for Long Jump which I'm quite annoyed with because it's my favourite event. Then, I went to Shotput. 13 year olds had to throw with the 3 kg. I did quite well and my longest throw was 6.18 m but they didn't tell anyone the top three that got through to HP. After Shotput we did the 200 m sprint. I always get nervous before it. Karly came first, Holly came second, Paige came 3rd and I came 4th. 

Then on Tuesday, some of the girls did Discus. Me, Ella, Alexa and Elizabeth decided we should participate in it. My first couple of throws I got two no throws and I was really annoyed because I wanted to do well. My last throw was all right but not the best I've done. I am hoping I got into HP for at least a couple of things.
