Challenge Meeting 6 – Progress Comes in Different Forms

Today two Speedworks athletes showed that improvement isn't always found where you expect it.

Alexander, a thrower, was signed up for his first-ever 100m race after months of working on speed and power to support his throwing events. 100m – 12.65 & Shot Put – 10.44m

Not bad for someone who usually throws things instead of chasing the finish line! 😄

Meanwhile, Maria produced an outstanding run in the 1500m, taking over 12 seconds off her personal best. 1500m – 5:05.79 PB

Today's result was built on patience, discipline, and excellent ex*****on of the race plan. Pace discipline was the key.

As we often tell the athletes: talent gets attention, but consistency gets results.

Keep trusting the process—there is still plenty more to come.

U16 & U14 National Championships – DAY 1 🇲🇹

A very strong first day for the Speedworks athletes, with personal bests, medals, strong performances and great fighting spirit shown across all events. Proud of every athlete that stepped on the track and field today.

U14 RESULTS
100m
• Melly – 13.81 PB – 6th
• Liam S – 13.46 PB – 6th

1000m
• Katarina – 3:34.47 SB – 4th
• Liam S – 3:04.27 PB – 2nd 🥈

Special mention to Liam S who improved by 15 seconds in the 1000m. That is not a small improvement — it is the result of commitment, consistency and hard work in training. Well deserved.

U16 RESULTS
100m
• Matteo – 12.09 PB – 3rd 🥉
• Liam V – 12.21 – 5th
• Luke – 13.29

Matteo’s first ever 100m race and a very encouraging performance. Developing speed is essential for progression in middle distance events and today showed very positive signs for the future.

Unfortunately, Liam lost rhythm and fell in the last metres of the
race. Tough moments also build athletes.

1500m
• Matteo – 5:25.90 – 1st 🥇
400m
• Matteo – 53.69 – 1st 🥇

Javelin
• Elizabeth – 22.69 – 2nd 🥈
• Victoria – 21.80 PB – 3rd 🥉

The throwers continue to improve competition after competition under the mentorship and guidance of Coach Jenny. The hard work being done behind the scenes is clearly showing.
