I have been so looking forward to today, having to wait so long to do my 200m has been hard, especially as most of the Athletics team have done their events – and won medals.
My 200m is at 11.40, I hadnt seen the family but I know they will be in the crowd and I am sure once the race starts I will hear Mum!. I am in lane 2 which being small gives me a slight advantage and so hopefully that will be good.
It was a fantastic race not just because I won a silver medal but more importably I got a PB with a time of 32.58seconds, Dad and Will said they have never seen me run so well. Everything went right from the start, the bend and then the final straight, I gave it my all and Bryn my coach will be really pleased with my run.
The Jamaican girl had a clear win with a time of 32.03, but the 2nd to 4th places were much tighter with 32.58 (me) 32.59 and 32.60. It went to a photo finish and fortunately for me I got 2nd – yippeeeeeee.
The 4 x 100 Relay – I led off giving the girls a really good start, then Hannah (who had won her 100M final) had a great leg, passing to Anne (who had to miss her 100m final due to injury) who mainitained the lead finally passing to Vicki (who came 2nd in the Pentathlon) brought it home to win in a time of 1:02 – We were really happy.
