Berkeley Meet

So... Today was the Berkeley All-comers meet, which was unusually packed for one of these.
Hammer started at 9, to which we were a bit late, but still were able to watch.
Next was shot put, which took 3 very long, large flights to complete
During shot put was Javelin, very cool to watch
After Javelin and shot, was disc
My dad was first flight, hitting in the 100's
I was first on the second flight....
I hit nothing, and I have a story to tell:

"Matt and the magical head case"
Once upon a time, there was a young man named Matthias Strand
Matthias was a young man going to the Kingdom of the Falcons high school
The Kingdom of Falcons(FHS) had a track team, of which Matthias was a member
Matthias specialized in the discus throw, learning from his father, the wizard Ronnius
One day, Matthias, his father, and Matthias' close friend Rosaline went to the faraway land of Berkelburg, to Calzenheimer castle, a vast kigdom of young men and women, all athletic
Matthias and co. entered in the Calzenheimer track tournament for the surrounding populace
Matthias, not aware, was cursed with a spell named *psychenoutus*
Psychenoutus was a spell cast on his parents before he was born by a witch jealous of Matthias' mother's red hair
After much exposure, Matthias' father found methods around this curse, but Matthias and Rosaline(Who, after being around Matthias so much, had the spell rub off on her) had forgotten how to block the spell
A long meet allowed the spell to take full effect, and Matthias and Rosaline lost terribly, despite Matthias' father's presence, his mother's magical charms, and sister's chants
But Matthias' father had used the meet to cast a protect charm, granting Matthias and Rosaline the ability to block the curse from then on.
Matthias, Ronnius, and Rosaline left that tournament prepared for the next battle with psychenoutus
The three went to the Nationalius ye olde great burger shoppe to eat sandwiches and drink iced vanilla and chocolate nectar.
The day ended with Matthias hugging his mother, who told Matthias he would do better next time
The end.




And that pretty much sums up my day
