Busy, busy!

        Hello! Wow what a week! Right so let's catch up. Tuesday morning I went swimming and I think it went quite well, I led the lane, and I concentrated on my technique especially on my front crawl. Then Tuesday night I had my netball trials again (we had a re-trial) and I think I did quite well and I enjoyed it. Then I didn't swim Wednesday morning as it was my brother Monty's 11th birthday, also I had district sports that day. District sports was really fun and I really enjoyed it. I got picked for 3 events (2 of which I hadn't done before!). We got there and Sir said we had to pick two girls and two boys to do hurdles! I had never done hurdles before but Sir told us to go round the track and have a practice and see who would like to do it. I went with the other girls and me and my friend Maisie had a go, I was scared at first but after jumping over a few i quite enjoyed, but then we were told to stay off the hurdles! Me and Maisie were chosen to take part in the hurdle race, which was the first event, I was so nervous, but I came 2nd in my heat! Maisie came 1st in hers, so overall we did quite well.
         Then I had high jump, which I had only practiced once at school, I came 6th along with two other people, so I think I did ok in that. Then I had the race I had been waiting for, the 600m. I was really nervous at the start but once I started running I was fine. I started of 3rd then went to 2nd, then back to 3rd and I then stayed in that posititon for the rest of the way round, until the last 80m when my friend from another school(who I have been against before) caught me up, we then were both sprinting hard, but she just beat me at the end. It was a good race and our school did quite well.
          That night I also had my netball camp for two hours, so I was very tired when I got in! Then Thursday morning I really worked hard and led the lane again, I really enjoyed the session. But I didnt do as well that night, I was a bit slow, but I still worked hard.
        Now onto last night, that didnt go so well. We did 16x100m pulling, which I was at the back for, as I am not as strong as the others. But then we did 8x100m kick and I was doing ok but, I along with Rebecca and Jordan, was not making the times. Our coach Pete told us that if we didnt make the times he would move us into lane 1 a a punishment. We were still not making the times, so we were moved into lane 1 and then we weresoon taken out and made to do press ups until our lane had finished. We then soon got back in to do the main set which was 5x200m IM then 300M Back then 5x100m IM then onto cooldown.I was doing ok on the IMs but I was a bit behind, although my coach said that I looked good but just needed to push it a bit more to get a bit more rest. I felt slow and tired but I still tried. So overall it wasn't the best session.
Right now I am just getting ready to go visit some family, which I am really excited about. Then on Sunday I have an M11 Gala which I am really excited about, I just hope I do well. But bye bye for now!
