On Thursday 31st January 2008 the Links Final of the Sheffield Indoor Athletics was held at the English Institute of Sport.  There were 7 schools altogether which included Phillimore, St John’s, norfolk, Sharrow & Deepcar.  At first everybody was very nervous and giddy but soon calmed down and got down to business when Mrs G gave us our teamtalk.  The boys went first on the track whilst the girls did there field events brilliantly.  The boys even won all but one of their racess!  At half time all the girls were nervous because so many people would be watching them run.  just like the boys, the girls managed to win most of their races!  After all of the races the organiser got us all together to read out the results - when he got to third place he still hadn’t read us out.  The top two places go through to the next round so when he read that Norfolk were third, we all whooped with joy.  Amazingly, with 180 points, we came first!  We recieved a trophy to keep, and a shield to keep for the year plus a minature trophy!

The City Final is on Friday 29th February so fingers crossed!!!
