SAISA PRACTICE:

I stay every Tuesday, and Friday after school and I come every Wednesday morning and Saturdays to school to practice for SAISA track and field. Joining SAISA track and field was a really risk taking move as I have never done it before and didn’t know what to expect. I also didn’t know if my abilities were good enough for making the team. The first practice was not so hard. We went around in a circle to changing each stations, each station had a different thing we had to work on like balancing or strength. As days went by the training got harder and a bunch of people quit. Some couldn’t resist the heat and the amount of work we had to go through. After I tried all the selection of activities available for me I found out which ones I was good at. I love the high jump it is my favorite out of all. Every practice I see that I am improving and hopefully ill improve enough to place on the track meet. As the days go by we start to specify in activities instead of only running and sometimes jumping. Time trials occurred twice this time during practice. The first one didn’t matter and that was totally lucky for me because I had crucible the same day. The second time trails was to see who would make the team so if I missed that then there was no chance for me. i managed to go and I got all my times down. Luckily after a long practice I managed to get good enough to make the team. Now that the team is chosen we divided into small groups so that we can specify and get better in our field for example since I am a distance runner I would not waste my time practicing on how to sprint. We are now pin pointing our mistakes so that we can make that tiny improvement before we go to April break and then to Dhaka.
