My Experience with Failure and Success in Sport – Week 150

Greetings friends from Hive and from the @WEEKENDEXPERIENCES community, today I will once again participate in the initiative promoted by @galenkp, where they present us with various themes, in which I select the one that refers to Challenge, Failure and Success.

I believe that failure and success go hand in hand, because when we talk about failure, they are experiences in life in which we have not achieved the objectives that we have set for ourselves; on the other hand, success is the opposite when we manage to reach that goal that has raised, and we are happy to have achieved it. When we fail at something, this is learning that will not help us grow as people and advance until we achieve the desired success.

Next I am going to mention my experience where I felt that they had failed and others that were successful

The first experience was at the sporting level, when I was a young man and belonged to a team of fifteen runners, where my four brothers were, and other adult companions who had extensive experience in training and competitions, in my case I was new to this sport. , we trained five days a week, my beginnings were not easy but I liked it a lot and I still feel a lot of love for this sport. In training I felt very good, I ran very well and when we did competition type training among ourselves, we made good marks.

It should be noted that when it was time to participate in the first competitions, at the start of the race I was well behind, and my other three brothers always came ahead, with a difference of up to five minutes, and managed to classify in the categories, but I arrived a little tired and I felt like a failure, since I did not have the same performance as my brothers.

After participating in all those competitions where I was never close to winning, I felt unmotivated, but as time went by, I told myself that if I could do it, I continued training with my brothers and with the team, later with the help of a runner who provided me with a training plan that included speed training and also running at a fast and easy pace, this helped me a lot, since I began to improve my times at different distances.

In several competitions, my brother and I, with these new training plans, we managed to qualify in racing competitions in different states of Venezuela. This achievement is due to perseverance and also to the love that one feels for this sport. Failure is a experience that allows you to improve and achieve success.
