It has been a while since I wrote something on my site. I have been very busy lately, so I really didn’t have the time. From now on, I will try to keep you informed. After all, the summer season started and I will compete.
I started my season in Lisse. Because shot put was going well in training I thought I would be ready for a meeting. Unfortunately, it didn’t happen in Lisse. After 14.21m I can say I didn’t do well.
Two weeks later I started a meeting in Hoorn. My coach wanted me to start to run some races, because he didn’t want me to lose the ‘feeling’ of competing. So I did the 100 and shot in Hoorn. The 100 went well up to 60m. After that I made every possible mistake I could make. 12.55 by -1.0 m/s wasn’t catastrophic, but not good either. The shot went a bit better than in Lisse: 14.56.
The monday of pentecost I competed in Hulst. I was supposed to do javelin and 100, but because I had some back pains the week before I decided to skip the javelin. The 100 I ran with -3.1 m/s. I ran 12.72 and considering the conditions, I was quite happy.
Jean Paul and I decided that I will train hard in June. This means I will not start in Leiden and Uden. I will do some competitions in France, though.
Well, that was it for now. I’ll keep you updated as much as I can.
