Durham Bulls

On Saturday night my mom and dad and I went to a Durham Bulls game. It went to fourteen innings. It was a really good game even though the Bulls lost. I did a pitching machine and on my last pitch I had to guess how fast I threw the ball. I guessed forty miles per hour. My guess was right so I got a mini bat. We had a really good time.

runner's camp

Last week I went to runner's camp. I had a lot of fun. I was in the nine year old purple boys group. The things that we did were high jump, long jump, javelin, shot put, discus, 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m, 16oom and hurdles. On Saturday morning we had try outs . We got to pick two field events and three running events. Only three Kids got in to each field event. I qualified for high jump and long jump and I also ran in 100m, 200m and hurdles. On that night we had our track meet. I came in first for long jump, I came in third for high jump, I came in third for 100m , I came in second for 200m and second for hurdles. We almost had to cancel the track meet because of lightning but after twenty minutes the storm went away. I want to do it again next year.
