Also- I know what the pains are coming from-its the track.

Just tell your coaches and tell them if it REALLY hurts!! because you don't want to get hurt before your meet!! Because I had the same problem so if they start hurting really bad say maybe you can sit out a couple of runs. They will understand.

Hope I helped!! And good luck in your meet!!

Q: alright, i'm hoping to start tennis this fall (its my first of high school). the only problem is that i know i'm going to have a physical to play on the team. well this is super babyish, but i am scared to DEATH of shots. so i was wondering what do they do during a physical? i know they weigh you and measure your height but is that all? i'm almost positive i'm going to need a tetnis shot :( , but do they have to prick my finger or anything? and one more thing, is there any way to get around getting the shot?

thank you so much!

there is no way of getting out of the shots, sometimes its on your finger sometimes its on your arm. i just had mine awile ago, i had to get a tetnis shot its not that bad, just look away and close your eyes, ITS JUST A COUPLE OF SECONDS! hope i helped a little! *marielle*

Q: I hate basketball. well i don't hate it i just dont like it very much. Everyonr says I should play even our school's coach but i don't know. im 5'7 so they say ill be a good rebounder or defender??? but i cant shot! i miss everything! should i play?

hey i really dont like how people do that! im in the same situation. i think that if you really hate it you shouldnt play. when i started and now still i cant even make a basket durring the game, im so annoyed by that, but everyone says im a good defender. i think its your choise, if you want to try it or not, you might be good at one thing or you could end up the best on the team. i hope i helped out a little! *Marielle*
