Hello everyone, today i will tell about my first competition in athletics!
Imagine a cold day...very cold, november 2009. It was very early in the morning, when you want just to sleep...i'm in my bed from the hotel where i will stay 3 days (the period of the competition) and i hear from my coach "wake up, wake up and let's see if you are a pus*y"
Was the time to see if all the hard work i put during the last 6months meant something, i was very tense..little bit scaried and i felt how the adrenalin pops up. I will not be that arrogant who tells you "i didn't felt nothing, i was the brave, the best..bla,bla,bla " No,i was scaried !
I woke up..i put my clothes on..everybody from the room starts to eat, i don't want nothing,my body does not even want to see food and i don't eat. In my head i just wanna know if i have a strategy ,if i can do this ! And slowly i accept the situation, i know i will put all i have and just it !
We go to the field and I start to hear a lot of noise,everybody talks, every coach try to tell them the best strategy and i don't do any noise..everything for me it's new!
I started to train, to put my body in shape.. after 30 minutes of training my body responds very well and i'm ready!
After couple of minutes i hear my name, was the time to go on the track, i see how my coach comes to me and he starts to tell me " you don't have any reason to not put all the energy in this ! I don't care what position you will take, i just wanna see if you are a man not a boy ! i wanna see your confident,your ambition and if you are a pus*y "
I go to the START..i'm in the middle,in my left i have 3 guys,BIG guys and in my right same,4 guys who had mustache bigger than my hair of my head ( remember,i had 13years old) ! I didn't care ,i was ready !
I put in my blockstart , i hear : REEEADY ! my heart pops up, i can feel how my blood goes in my veins and BOOM!!! We start to run and run, i look just in front and i can see the finish line and i continue to run ! I run after the finish line and easily i stop ! Was done, i see how my opponents are starting to vomit..
I don't go to the couch, i just seat there and waiting for the results, after 30minutes on the big screen i can see my name.. I was the 4th !
I didn't knew if it was good or bad.. i was satisfied because I put all my energy and for that competition was all i can !
My coach told me just this " you are not a pus*y, i'm proud of you" !
This was my first competition,hope you liked !
