Brussels Diamond League

 The women’s discus diamond league final was yesterday in Brussels Belgium.  The diamond race in our event was won by Yarelis of Cuba.  But the last meet went to the young and on fire! Sandra of Croatia who threw a national record of 66.93 meters.  It was a great meet, sold out stadium of over 40,000 fans and some live music too, it was a great atmoshphere.  We were early in the program and the stadium was filling up as we competed.  I have been training hard since the London meet and it took me a few rounds to get into my competition groove, 6 rounds to say the least.  My last throw was my best throw and it would have been enough for 4th place but as competition goes a few others threw further in the final round and I finished in 6th place.  Next time I need the start with that throw and then build from there.  I feel pretty good though with the changes I made and now I have 2 more european meets to better my seasons best and maybe pr.  The 2010 diamond league is over and I fnished 4th in the overall race, a very consistent season but next year will be better.
