VJ athletics

Today's training wasnt so bad.
In fact, it was rather good!

My technique's shaping up, and my throws are consistently btw the range of 10.90m to 11m. Not bad for a start. (: Which means... My really good throws would exceed that, and that im ready to throw even furthur. Hallelujah!

Anyway.
I realise im getting used to travelling to VJ, training in VJ, to the ppl in VJ and to the coach in VJ. I realised that i can really trust him to give me the best that he can give. I seem to trust in his coaching and the person he is. (: Thank you Lord for a good coach. (:

I realised too, that i might have to say goodbye to my old coach. but if i ever make it big, he will be remembered, for he was the one who brought me to who and where i am today. I dont know if training with both coaches is the best idea for they may have different seasons and things in mind (Though its very similar). But then again, extra training is always beneficial for an athlete, i believe.

Thinking about all these, ive been thinking about competitions.
I cant quite figure which is better.
A competition with close competitors,
or a competition with no competitors.

A competition with close competitors will cause you to push yourself harder and give you an extra motivation to train and push yourself. But there is also a risk of you not winning.

A competition with no competitors may cause you to end up becoming complacent and no drive to break through the next mental wall you face for no matter what, you're the winner anyway.

So what is better?
I cant quite figure that out.
