 On Monday we went to Millenium Stadium on the North Shore. We did the 1500m first up everybody was cheering there house. The person that got first in this event would go to the Remuera Zones. This was a very tough race that in the end it was a close finish. Next up were all the field events. Long Jump was first on the field rotation. My opponenst luckily were not jump to the best ability, so that meant it was a bit easier for to win. In the end I won by 20cm.
Then the rain came and it ended up setting in so the had to cancel it and make it another day.
