Athlete Report: BENEDICT CHONG WONG - SHOT PUTT AND DISCUS Feb 2014

I have competed in 7 competitions for both discus and shot-put over the past 3 months winning every shotput competition and taking out three discus events in a row until my discus technique went to custard.
I have also changed my shotput technique from linear to rotational, which is a major switch because they are both completely different techniques.  I only made the switch four weeks ago and am learning it faster then expected.  
I competed the past weekend  (25th January) at Millennium Institute of Technology and got a new personal best of 15.85 meters with Senior mens weight 7kgs which puts me at 4th in nz, my personal best previous to this completion was 14.25meters with 7kgs.  

I still have 3 years until I am supposed to throw 7kg!

I have a busy couple of months ahead with major events being
Porrit Classic 8th February, Porrit Stadium Hamilton
International Meet (ITM), Christchurch 22-24th February 2014
New Zealand Track and Field Championships 2014 March 28-30th  
Australian Junior Championships 11th-16th March Sydney
World Junior Championships 2014, Eugene, USA.
