Long Jump and High Jump

Can you imagine someone running and jumping into a sand pit or over a bar. That's what I do for long jump and high jump. High jump and long jump are 2 of many field events. They are very fun to do and this year I'm trying them both.

Are there any similarities between high jump and long jump? Well yes, one is that you have to run and jump. Another is they are both field events that happen at a track meet. You can win metals and ribbons like any other event. If you don't land right or tip the bar over you get a scratch. Practice is key and it helps me.

In long jump you get to jump into a sand pit. You want to go for length to do good. When you start running you want to jump before the thick white line. If you don't you get a scratch. I personally like long jump better.

Although high jump is fun I think it is harder. In high jump you have to go over a bar and land on a mat. When you do it you want to go for height. When you run you curve then get to the bar and jump on tho the mat.

Well I do both events and they are both fun. You should try them too. You'll love them I do.
