Jasmine's Journey Through Pole Vaulting
Hi, my name is Jasmine. I am a senior in high school and my AP Psychology teacher is having us do this thing called genius hour. I have chosen to study "how to pole vault". Right now I hold my school's pole vault record; but I would like to keep improving and eventually earn all-state honors. I will be watching "how to" and other kinds of pole vault videos. At the end of the project I will be sharing what I have learned with my fellow classmates.

Trials and Tribulations

ALL CONFERENCE!
Today was the CAAC conference meet. I got a new season PR (personal record) in pole vault. I jumped 8ft and placed either 7th or 8th. I need to step it up and at least jump 9ft by the end of the season! On one of my attempts I hit the crossbar off the standards and landed right on it with my hip. It actually broke skin and bruised immediately... great spot to have an open wound... right where my pants rub. I PR'd in discus and became an All Conference Discus thrower for the second year in a row! Woo hoo, I'm so excited! I threw 97'7"!
