Athletics in Room 13

In Room 13 we have been doing athletics. First we started doing relays and sprints and now we are doing long jump at the long jump pit. We had to run up to the pit and jump. Some techniques we found good were having our legs out like a pike and having a high jump, we also found it good having your arms out. Some people had their shoes on and others had their shoes off. We found that if you had your shoes off the landing in the sandpit is hard. Many people took their shoes off so they could get a faster run up and not get sand in their shoes. Many people had quite a bit of height doing this. Here are some photos of what people looked like doing long jump.
