Experiencing 2010 State Track


I am getting really excited for our track season this upcoming spring. Last year I made it to the state meet in Des Moines, IA. I went to throw as just a freshman. This made me think that I was going to be very good at this in the future. That is why I can't wait until I can throw. Last year at the district meet in Laurens, IA i was thinking i was only a freshman and I never would have thought of going to state in the event. So as i was thinking that I also was thinking of my friend, Ada, who was a senior at the time. So had been throwing really well and i thought for sure she was going to get to state last year. Then she started throwing. She was not doing very well and things went down hill from there. So when I got up to throw i thought of her. I said to myself, "If she isn't going for her senior year then I am going to take her." So I threw the furthest I have ever threw placing me in the 2010 state track meet. When we got there we had tons of fun. Ada and I went and stayed in a hotel. Expenses paid by the school of course. :D We went out to eat at Granite City for supper and it was delicious. Then it got to the day that I threw. I really wasn't nervous, but everyone saying, "Don't be nervous" didn't help much. When i was throwing in the ring I got off a little thrown off because the ring was crooked. So i didn't throw very good that day but i will do better next year.
