As always, we arrived early and was blessed by a beautiful sunny day, although not ideal weather for athletes. I was especially looking forward to some of the field events like the Javelin, Pole Vault and Long Jump.
A brand new experience was in store which made him feel like a total professional , he had to warm up away from the track in the warm up arena next to the stadium and then had to register and was finally lead out onto the track by officials just before his race.
Just like all the other proud parents we watched his races nervously cheering him on. We we're really pleased with both his runs and especially as he improved his 1500m personal best to 4 minutes 28.6 seconds. On the second day of events he was also cheered on by his 81 year old proud grandfather in his 800m race where he recorded a seasons best time of 2 minutes 08 .55 seconds.
The whole event was extremely well organised and the athletes could even have a sports massage which my son took advantage of, which really helped with his tired muscles.
