I did it ..
It wasn’t brilliant but I didn’t embarrass myself..
I had two TERRIBLE no throws … got really wound up .. found my coach and PFND who gave me a pep talk , took my last throw and laid down a legitimate shot albeit it was much shorter than normal and amazingly didn’t come last . Five points for Stratford upon Avon vets team.
Worked out AFTER the first two where I was going wrong and now I know for future meets . I will try again on 1st September at an even bigger venue.
Honestly I think that’s the most nervous I’ve ever really been , I don’t tend to get nervous except if I fall over skiing but that’s a different panic so not quite the same .
Here I am with our club chairman who thinks I’m mental at the best of times , he’s a very calm man , always looks as if he wants to run off when he sees me ;-)) and lovely Ali who is a speed walker , she did extremely well this evening in her race .
