Even though, I love to play basketball. I also love to run track. I have ran track for about two years now. I have done high jump, long jump, triple jump, and ran the 400. I have had success in all of the events that I’ve ran so far. I was very comfortable with my old coaches at my old school because they were my coaches in basketball and football, as well. Although they didn’t know very much they gave me an idea and I began to blossom. I placed in almost every event that I did. And I hoped to carry my success toward EHS.
Although now, I’m with a whole new coaching staff, new season (varsity), and I’m a little bit rusty. I am starting to adapt to the new coaching staff at EHS this year. I enjoy working with my coaches and they are teaching me way more then my previous coaches. I am learning different techniques, and I’m getting better as I start to get a better understanding of jumping/running. Coach Hat, and coach Duke have really taught me a lot in these last few days. Even though at the recent track meet, I didn’t place. I’m improving with the basics which will advance me and put my skills to the next level. And I have to take in account that unlike middle school, I’m competing against mainly juniors and seniors. I’m barely missing the chance to place but in long jump and high jump yesterday. I had the opportunity to get 3rd and 4th. But without those missing skills, I’m running out of chances at placing. But like my coaches said, I’m going to get there soon. All I need is a little more practice. Then I will be able to show off my skills better.
