Track and Field

The picture was tag to me by Teacher Lala, it was Yanna running and competing for 200m dash on track and field event. Yanna is the eldest daughter of my cousin, and this kid  really close to my heart, she is one my niece so close to me! And seeing her on the picture, strike my heart in tears, she brings me back on my childhood.

If I`m not mistaken, it was the same field I do my first take off as the sound of the clapper goes on air... "On your mark... Ready!!!... Set!!!... Go!!!...that was 17 yrs ago! I`m on 100 and 200 meters dash event, but I`m more comfortable with 200, which I won, I go for more training on the field, and I shift on the long distance running event, 1800 meter run, were I excel most. Its my pride and honor to compete in the name of my dear Alma Matter and bring home the bacon.

The track and field is the reflection of my childhood... place were I run under the sun, compete under the rain... people see my big smile as I go 1st on the finish line, also they watch me fall on the ground but cheer me up to stand and finish the race. My childhood, were I enjoy most and learned more that brings me of what I am today.
