Sarah Walker

The London Olympics is finished and we have scored 13 medals all together. My favorite athlete would have to be Sarah Walker, the great BMX racer.

Sarah Walker was born in Whakatane, New Zealand, and lives in Kawerau, New Zealand. Walker started BMX in 1999 when she saw her brother, Matt, riding one day.

Seeing her racing and competing with other countries was very scary. Sitting on the chair cheering for  the great athlete,“GO, you can do it!”. She came second, a silver medal!  I saw her standing and looking so happy and ecstatic. Great job!

As well as competing in BMX events around the world, Walker has also been a sports ambassador for Beef + Lamb New Zealand since 2008.

So, hopefully, next time Sarah Walker can do even better and get a gold medal.

 I believe that hard work, will power will bring success in sports, how you will succeed this? is that you have the desire and strength, and also believing in yourself,  just like all the athletes who are competing in the london olympic are also Striving to Succeed.

I think that both natural ability and hard work are important to an athlete, Why? because then they know that if they achieve that hard work, well then they all know that they are definitely moving towards a gold medal. It may be hard work, but you always say to yourself never give up, keep trying.

 Most good athlete are born with speed, flexibility and coordination. You have may not noticed athletes who have been swimming since they were in kindergarten, other people who has been lifting weights since they were in primary. It really doesn't matter who you are just keep it up strive to succeed, Kia Kaha.

My Gold Medal

This Term we have been learning to achieve a gold medal, our challenge is to accomplish our work and finish it on time, being on task doing the right thing will get you to your destination. This is the gold medal that I received from my teacher from finishing off my work.  

Go for gold

How do we go for gold?

Striving to Succeed and also trying to do your best. How you accomplish a gold medal is that you believe in yourself, and also to never give up. Taking charge of your actions and being focus will get you to your destination. Champions never give up. For starters if you want to reach to the top and archive a gold medal well you have to always turn up to your practices and to have the willpower to stick to your goals, being lazy is one to. Athletes who get to be part of the london olympic is huge it may be very hard but always remember the most important thing is not to win but to take part.

Jesse Owens Inspires Me

Jesse Owens was a great champion, he was born on september 12, 1913, in Oakvill, Alabama. He inspire me because this olympic athlete won three track and field event at the 1933 national  Interscholastic championship while he was in high school. As a young child jesse owens often suffered from sickness by his battles with chronic bronchial congestion and pneumonia.

In the early years people still expected him to work after the illness he had, So at the age seven he was picking up 100 pounds to put food on the table for family, that also inspires me because he had never gave up and he had always strive to succeed , that’s what I call a champion.

When I grow up up I hope I can win gold medal just like Jesse Owens.
