The Olympics Stadium athletics track

For reading I copied an article from the Olympics website .I made some questions and see if you can answer them .

 The athletics track at the Olympic Stadium is a 400m oval. For all track events the finish line is in the same place, at the end of the ‘home straight’.

The track programme comprises sprints, middle-distance and long-distance events for men and women; hurdles and steeplechase races; and relays. Most events start with heats, with the fastest athletes or teams progressing to semi-finals and then the final.

To become the fastest human being at a particular distance requires not only speed but also supreme fitness, strength and the ability to master challenging techniques, such as the start in sprints and clearing the barriers in hurdles and steeplechase events.

Short-distance sprint races are the 100m, 200m and 400m. These three events (each with men's and women's categories), along with two hurdles events for men and two for women, employ a crouching start using starting blocks.

The 100m, which determines the fastest human being and is one of the most eagerly awaited event at any Games, is run on a straight course. The distance was covered in 12 seconds at the Athens 1896 Games while Jim Hines (USA) became the first Olympian to dip below 10 seconds at Mexico 1968. Since then, the world record has been lowered primarily by American and Jamaican athletes.

The current men's 100m world record is 9.58 seconds, set by the greatest sprinter in history, Usain Bolt (Jamaica), at the IAAF World Championships in 2009. Remarkably, any athlete running the distance in under ten seconds covers ten metres in less than one second.

 

 

1. How long is the athletics track at the Olympics Stadium?

2. How long are short distance sprints?

3. How many meters do you need to determine your  the fastest human being,100m,200m,400m,?

4. What is the world record for the 100m run?

5. Who set the world record for 9.58 seconds in the 100m run?

Emerging Leaders go to the Warriors Stadium

 On Friday the 20th of june there was a group of kids called the Emerging Leaders and the Emerging leaders are some kids who set examples for other kids  to be kind and nice to other people and on 20th of june the Emerging Leaders were going to do activities and the activate is that they are going to the Warriors Stadium to go throw all of the stuff that the Warriors do before there games  and one of the leaders of the warriors are going to take us throw everything they do so we hopped onto a warriors and then we went of to the warriors stadium and it took not that long but we were still happy that we were actually going to the Warriors Stadium .So after we got to the warriors stadium we hopped of the bus and then we took some photos in front of the bus and then we ran to one of the warriors plays and his name was Adam Blair and after that this guy explain what we had to do when Adam Blair takes us for a tour around the hole stadium .

So first he took us to the gym to show us how they work out and then he took us to the locker rooms and we were looking at all of the names but one name was missing but nobody cared about it so when he showed us the locker rooms he took us to there pool so they had a hot pool and a cold pool and we got to touch the water and the hot water was nice and warm but the cold water was very cold so right after that we went to go to this thing but it looked like a theatre and it was very cool but we had to stay there for long as but then we saw outside that there was food coming so we all got excited to eat and then the food got there and then we grabbed some food and then we eat and we eat lots and lots of food but after we eat  we went to the front of the bus and then we took some more photos and finally we hopped back onto the warriors bus and then we left and we were driving for ever and it was song long I almost fell asleep on the bus but then we got back to school and then me and my friends ran to the school gates and then we jumped over them because we wanted to go back to our class and then we ran all the way back to our class’sand then when  we got there our class was there and we were so happy to see our friends agnin .

 Levers a made for to lift heavy things and to make it easier to lift . You can use it to help people like when you see a person trying to lift something then say do you need help lifting that then if they say yes then you check if there is a lever nearby and use it and try to lift the thing that the person is trying to lift .

A lever a like a kids seesaw but a bigger version of it.When you put a ton on a lever that means you are putting 2 000 tons on a lever and when there is a person putting weight on the other side of the lever then you can lift 2 000 tons but you have to put a fulcrum under the lever so when you put weight on both sides of the lever the you will be able you lift 2 000 tons .If you lift 2 000 tons it will be very hard to lift is I think that to adults can lift it but if you use a lever to lift it then it well be much easier.

 

Stay safe around water

 

 
Do not panic well you are in deep water. Wave your hand and say help well you are going to drown and say help as loud as you can.If you see someone drown in the water then run to the lifeguard or if there is no lifeguard  try to go and save then.If  you are in deep water and you are panicking then just try to relax and flout on the water then the water will take you to the sand.Did you know that 320 000 people have died from drowning and that is so sad that 320 00 people have died in water.When people are going to the pools and there is some little kids that are on the deep side of the pool then run immediately to the little child and take them away from the deep side of the pool and keep an eye on them .
