Out the corner of my eye I saw Ang waving me over from the other end of the hill.
I ran over to Niamh and we made our way over to shot-put .
When we arrived Astrid greeted us with a smile , ticked our names off and then we lined up with the other kids and waited for our turn.
There was a bit of waiting because so many of the kids were at other events, so we had to start without some of the,.
"Christy it's your turn to throw". Astrid said looking up from the score sheet.
I walked over, picked up the orange specked shot-put and held it against my neck.
1, 2, 3... Push!
The shot-put flew through the air and landed with a thud.
My next throw was unfortunately a no throw and my last one was not my best.
But i'm super excited because Niamh got second so she got through to Otagos!
Overall It was a great experience.
