Long Jump - Athletics

Long jump

Long jump is a amazing sport in athletics and it is one of my favourites out of all of them.  There is lots of other sports like high jump and sprints but I still like long jump.  Also if you are into long jump you may hold a big future ahead of you.  Long jump is not everyone's cup of tea but if you give it a go you may like it.m

Long jump is a sport when you have to run and take a leap.  After you run then leap you try to get as far as possible to get a good score.  Also when it is your turn relax because if you are so nervous you might not get that far.  I will let you in on a little secret in the practice rounds for long jump i was very good but then when it came to the real jump i got so nervous I only jumped 1.2m. I was so nervous so if you can try not to be.

In long jump when you run you are about to take the jump you need to get your foot on the right part of the mat because if you jump before the mat you will not get far. Also if you jump after well you can pretty much get where i am going with this. So try to get your foot in the right spot before jumping.

Run, jump, land what you want to do is get a good score? RIGHT!! Well when you jump you want to give a big push so then you fly/jump as big as you can allowing you to get far in the sand. After when you land in the sand they will measure your jump then cover the sand back up where you were stand.

Run ,run, run as fast as you can and jump then stick the land.
