Wrestle with Strength

When the two professional wrestlers challenge, one of them struggle to fight and the other is trying to make him tap out. With great difficulty, the wrestlers fight with good strength and Determination. As quickly as he could, he took his opponent down and then arm locked him to a position were he could not get out. With facial expression, both of the wrestlers are determined to win and take the victory with them. The opponent in th blue looks very desperate to get out of the competitors arm lock.

Focus on the Target

As he stands there positioning himself, he pulls his arrow with all his strength to hit the target. He has a focused and concentrated look on his face when he pulls his arrow.
As he pulls the arrow back ready to release it into the air and on to the target, he waits
for the right moment to shoot. As he gets ready to aim, he pulls back his arrow and with a focused look in his eyes he stands in position and is ready to release. If he aims properly and positions himself properly then he will hit the target.

London Olympics

This year, the Olympic games will take place in London for the third time ever. The first time that the Olympic Games were held in London was 1908, the second was in 1948. In the London Olympic games in 1948, Fanny Blankers-Koen, a dutch mother of 2 became the only woman in history to win 4 gold medals at one game. The first modern Olympic Games was held in Athens, Greece.

At the 2008 Beijing Olympic games, the country that won the most medals was the USA. Michael Phelps is one of the athletes from the USA who has 16 gold medals and is also looking to win more this year. He won 3 gold medals in 2008 as well.

The world fastest man, Usain Bolt holds the world record of the 100 metre sprint, 200 metre sprint and the 4x100 metre relay. The sports that I know that they are included in the Olympics are swimming, track and field, weightlifting, table tennis, water polo, gymnastics, basketball, volleyball and many others. This years Olympics is going to have some returning champions who won medals at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

London is a city that embraces the majesty of the old and the excitement of the new. As an athlete, you have to set a goal and try to achieve. If you do then you make the goal more harder. Just like Valerie Adams, her first throw for shot put was 17.45m. Then she practised and practised and practised then she threw a score of 19.66m. Now her personal best throw is 21.24 metres.

I have many favorite activities and athletes but my favorite activity in the Olympics is shot put and my favorite athlete is Valerie Adams. When I watch her throw in shot put, I feel very happy and someday I would like to become a shot putter just like her.
