Too Exciting to Stop
I watched the World Athletics Championships on TV on Sunday. I was only planning to watch TV for a few minutes, but I couldn’t stop. It was too exciting. I saw the semi-finals for the women’s and the men’s 100 meters. I also saw the women’s long jump. Late in the evening, I turned the TV back on to watch the 100 meters finals. The men’s world recorder holder, Usain Bolt of Jamaica, was watching. The women’s final came first. Jefferson-Wooden of the U.S. got the gold, and Clayton of Jamaica got the silver. In the men’s 100 meters final, Seville and Thompson, both Jamaicans, got the gold and silver medals. I’m sure that Bolt was very happy!
