Well I got a bronze medal at nationals, I can't be too disappointed with that... I didn't hit the number I was looking for but I can't complain at all. I'm excited, plain and simple. After three rounds I was in first, but I know with a 15.22m jumper in the field that wouldn't last, then on the second last jump of the competition I got passed again. Looks like all this training is paying off after all.

Jump 1--13.54m, considering the farthest I have opened all season was 13.27m I knew that my hamstring was destined to survive. It was enough to jump out to an early lead though by a centimeter.

Jump 2-- 13.68m, I didn't touch the board which made me really excited. It also extended my lead.

Jump 3-- 13.82m, I was no where near the board, probably like 20cm away. Still in first though (: also a pb

Jump 4-- 13.84m +0.3m/s, ridiculous I was probably 30cm away from touching the board and it was still another pb. I was in second at this point.

Jump 5-- 13.83m-- again probably about 25cm away from the board. Still in second

Jump 6-- just clipped the board but only jumped 13.77m, still could have been close to 14m though

At Sydney next week records are falling, I'm going wayyy over 14m, no contest.
