State Track


This throw was also good enough for him to make it into the finals of shot put so he was able to make three more attempts to throw farther than his previous throws. In the end he didn't win his event yet he placed third overall. By the end of shot put I felt so anxious for my event that I wanted to go over to the high jump mats and start jumping so that I could work of the extra energy that had been building up throughout the morning. The only bonus was that my event started in about two and a half hours, which meant I only had to wait through the forty-five minute lunch break and the prelims for the boys one hundred ten meter hurdles and the girls one hundred meter hurdles.
             During the forty-five minute lunch break I didn't eat much due to the fact that my event was coming up soon. After the break I gathered up my high jump spikes and jersey so that I could walk across the football field so that I could start stretching and warming up as I watched all of the athletes compete in the hurdles. As I was doing this a track official came up to me and told me that I could not be on the field unless I had an event going on at that time. This made me a little angry, but I just went back to my team camp to finish stretching until the announcer called fir first call for high jump. Then I went and finished my warm-ups on the field.
             At this time it was time for me to check into the high jump. Then it hit me after all morning of being anxious and excited to jump, I was now feeling nervous because I was in the same position the previous year and I came out and had the worst performance ever, and I didn't want this to happen again this year. Since I was nervous I took a few practice jumps to try and calm myself. After every one took their practice jumps the event started. Some of the athletes and I passed the first couple of heights up to the height of five feet ten inches. When the bar was finally op to the height of five feet ten inches, I was the first jumper which I think may have also contributed to my being nervousness.
