Kid Vision kids I am so excited to be here at a track and field practice but before we get started I think we need to learn more about where we're [Music] at shiny can you help us great kid Vision kids this is where the sport track and field happens track and field is a sport that includes contests based on running jumping and throwing let's break down the name of the sport track and field the track is where the athletes run each athlete runs on their own lane depending on the race the athletes run different distances sometimes they run 100 m 200 M or 400 m wow 400 m is the entire last around the track all right let's talk about the field the field is where the athletes practice throwing and jumping skills I can't wait to learn more about track and field events with the honest Runners team let's go that was perfect thank you now we're ready for track and field let's go warm up to prepare your muscles for practice it is very important to warm up and stretch now that we're warmed up let's find out more about the sport what is track and field with track and field we have different events that the kids compete in we have the 100 the 200 the 400 the 800 the 1600 we also have called a race walk we have long jump and high jump we have shop foot that's another Phil event kids participate in different events depend on their time a lot of kids participate with track from five years old into High School into college and some might make it to the Olympics one day you know that would be a good experience for our kids so that would be great yes what is the job of a coach so the job of a coach is to motivate the kids not to come down hard on them to let them know that if they dig deep they can be whatever they want to be if they want to be the top athlete in the age group just to try to motivate them to come to practice and practice hard every day good job good job good job good job Squad a little bit now we just spinning the top all right good job and pushing out one motion all right Focus make sure you finish high on you good good good good good good practice they coming out here they're warming up they're learning different techniques they're going to stretch and then they're going to do the same events over and over and over again it's going to be repetitive so they can build up the strength that they need to go and compete and once we get to a track meet it's showtime you know it's time for them to turn it on they have to put forth their best effort because you only have one time to make it to the finals I'm out here to really motivate them and to teach them the fundamentals of track we are a a teaching Club so honest Runners of North Miami is a propit organization we're not only grooming young athletes we're grooming productive citizens as well trying to Mentor them to be better people children need something positive to do after school we teach the children from very young the techniques how to breathe how to stay in their Lanes um how to just get out and run each event and run their own race and not be so concerned about the person next to them track and field is also just about determination you know how that the same goals practice makes perfect so as they come out here every day and they get accustomed to running it gets easier and easier and easier once you win it's the best feeling in the world [Music] yeah to put it's a fun event it's not all about strength people think it's all about strength but it's not you have to learn a certain technique in order to throw the ball in a certain way you ready okay I'm ready I'm ready you want to get this here under your neck but below under your ear but before your Jawbone okay with your palm out you press that against your neck all right this off arm uses as a momentum swinger all right this is what pulls your body for your throat all right you also will have to bend your knees okay bend your knees and twist your upper body then you're going to have a pull and push action pull and push going your elbow is going to pull here and this arm is going to push the ball out okay all right so it has to push from your neck and motion just like that finish High the goal is to throw it as far as you right who can throw it the farthest that's the goal you know I mean but like I said there's a lot of technique behind it but once you get the technique down the battery can throw it all right let's give it another shot do it hand out all right let's Bend and twist push out good push good job good job good push and pull good job good job good job that was good great job all right hi everyone hi it is so nice to meet you I'd like to ask you some questions who would like to tell me what the favorite part is about being on a track team we get to do a lot of practices and it's my dream to go to the Olympics you want to be the fastest man in the world I bet you can do it hi what's your name and how old are you three you're three and you're running already I saw you running before you're really fast yeah so fast so you two run together yes um our dad he SES like if you get tired or about to quit he try to motivate us to keep going until he finish finish hard and then we had so much fun to together because you don't give up on yourself right yes don't stop and don't give up don't stop and don't give up that's very good advice so you've been running track a long time when you're running and you're winning and you're losing it helps you in life don't you feel that way yeah that if you lose you feel like okay but I can keep going and do it better next time yeah it helps me by uh finding a different way to look at things and to do things so say if I don't win the first time I'll come back harder and do it [Music] again today was a great
