Reflection from Poshiya
Hi, my name is Poshiya. Last week, I competed in the 2026 regional Athletics. The events I competed in were the 100m and 200m sprints. I really loved and enjoyed it, though it was difficult racing the other fast competitors. I was really lucky to come 2nd in the 200m and I tried my best in the 100m and came 5th. Wish me luck for state!
