Ten Years For Javelin, Shixiao Xu

I will tell a story that it is about my physical profession for javelin that I had been practiced it for 1o years from 2000 to 2010.

The story began at ten years old; someday, I was running. A teacher came here and told me that he said: “you are tall and fast, do you want to join sport team? It can make you stronger and healthy. I think javelin is extremely to you which need a high height、run fast and stronger body. If you join this team, when you get a good score, you can take a great junior high school.” It sounds tempting. I really like sports, which I can play. When I was 4 years old, I learned swimming and I learned Ping-Pong ball at 6 years old. Usually I played football with my pattern. So I joined “HAI DIAN” sports school by my primary school’s teacher. Everyday I have to train javelin at 4:00pm until 7:00pm. I need to train whatever the seasons and have not vacation and weekend. Power and skill both of this two projects that I must to train. Let me tell you about my whole process of training. First of all, I go there by bike after school and change my sportswear. Second I can do exercise which need our body’s warm-up. In addition, Coach tells us what we have to train. It day by day exchange, if the first day we exercise skill, next day we have to exercise power. The power include bench press、squat、sit-ups、running50m、100m、200m、exchange rates running and jumping. Also the skill include Javelin throw、Medicine ball throw、do some skills imitate. The last but not the least, we have to run slowly surround the playground for 4000m.

Began at junior high school, it was my career low. I was injured of waist and I did not participate in the competition. Even though I joined match, I can’t beat rival. But in that year is the most critical year, it related to my high school. If I want to go High School Of Peking University, I must be a winner. So my mom talked with me, she said, ”Dear daughter, maybe it is time to give up javelin. After all you are injured and you can’t train, it is bad for your health. Now you could put down physical training and started studying, then you may achieve your dreams.” I thought mom’s words for a long time. It was for four years that I was training javelin that makes me confidence and persistence when I feel down. So I have to stick it through the trouble. I told my mom about my decision that I will persist in the end. I still train everyday and I did It. Ultimate I won the gold medal and achieved my dream that I got into the High School of Peking University.

In high school, I reached a national second level athletic of javelin in China. I won lots of gold medal in distinct match. For instance, HAIDIAN District of high school's match I am the first winner in 2005、2006 and 2007. In addition, I got a credential of national second level athletic in 2008.

I have been through tremendous difficult task the one, in front of me , is only a piece of cake if I put all my heart into dealing with it.
