When I was at school, I was quite good at track and field events. I was on the school team for the long jump, 100 and 200 meter sprints and the javelin.
Really? I was quite good at the hurdles and the discus.
I wish that I were good at the discus, but I could rarely throw it in the right direction! I was awful. With the hurdles, I could never jump over them!
I thought you were good at the high jump!
No, I was good at the long jump. I liked the sprints best.
Did you ever win any competitions?
I was regional champion for the 100 and 200 meters. I usually did well in the dong jump competitions, but I couldn't compete with kids from other schools in the javelin. How about you?
I came second and third a few times in the regional championships, but I never won. Did you ever take part in the national championship for the sprinting events?
