Walking down to Nairnville park Room 12 was very talkative. Everyone was excited for our school athletics which rolls around every year in Term 4. In our school athletics we have multiple events such as discus, vortex, long jump, shot put, 100 metre sprints and 200 metre sprints. Last term we also did high jump.
Unfortunately athletics is really not my thing. I didn't do very well in any of the events but I gave them all a go and had fun. My favourite event was probably discus and my least favourite would have to be sprints. I love cross country but then I really don't like sprints.
The EPIC value which I showed was perseverance. Although I'm not good at the sports I did them and I didn't give up. I also showed perseverance in the 1500 metres which I will talk about now.
We had a choice if we wanted to do the 1500 meter race. At first I wasn't to keen and I wasn't going to do it but I made a very last minute choice and ran the race. We had to run 3 laps and 3/4. I showed perseverance in this race as well since that's quite a few laps to run and it gets boring since there are no hills or anything, we just run around the track. Although I found it slightly boring it was still another favourite event of mine.
There were only 2 year 8 girls participating in this race so I automatically go through to Northern Zones since they took the top 2.
Overall the athletics day was really fun. I enjoyed my self and had heaps of fun participating in the events and when not competing, hanging with my friends.
Looks like you had a good time, so did I!
