The worst day in my life

I introduce about the worst day in my life. When I was a third year of high school student, the south Kyushu meeting of track and field was held. I was to take part in this race as a one of the relay team members. I was belonged to track and field club since I entered my high school and I became this club’s captain when I was in the second grade. So, this meeting was a very important event for me. Also, this meeting was connected to the inter-high-school athletic competition. If we are lost this race, this meeting is the last for the third grade students. But, I had some big trouble. I was hurt. In fact, I had suffered a calf‘s injury from when I was in the first grade. It was healed once, but it pained me again just before the south Kyushu meeting. It was very shocking for me. Teacher said that as long as there was possibility that I could run again, I shouldn’t give up. When I heard this message, I decided that the pain will disappear just before this meeting.

  June 18-21, 2009, in Kumamoto, the south Kyushu meeting was held. But my injury was still hurting. I was talking over with my teacher until just before the race. But, my calf was at its limit. I abandoned to running this race. After all, my junior ran instead me and our team lost out ticket to the inter-high-school athletic competition. I really wanted to run at the meeting and I was sorry to disappoint the other members.

Now, I sometimes go to the stadium to cheer the junior’s game. Whenever I see them, I remember my memory. So, when I meet juniors, I tell them to be careful not to get hurt because I don’t want them to repeat my blunder.

  June 16-19, this year, the south Kyushu meeting will be held soon. I wish that my juniors will get the ticket to the inter-high-school athletic competition.
