First time I heard about “Ultimate Athletics” I already got star stricken and immediately registered for my favorite 100m Sprint. When nostalgia hit me as I dwell into my past thinking about the athletics moments that I love to relive again, Ultimate Racenight made it possible. First time I set foot was in 2016 where my goal was just to participate, have fun and replenish these old rusty legs of mine, and it turned out well as I gained a lot of new friends with common goals, experienced running & jumping once again, and even won the Overall Senior League which is just a bonus for me. As I shift my focus to competitive mode I tried to compete with a bunch of Elite Masters participating for the glory, one would feel the overwhelming excitement to run against these elites battle for the Ultimate 60m title. Having a diverse training in short, mid and long distances, I have had the advantage to try out a vast variety of events and I thank Ultimate Athletics for making it all possible. This season I’m excited to try out the new events like the shot put and the long jump. My performance level now is way better than when I was in college as I set my series of personal bests, hence I am exceedingly reliving my nostalgic moments that I also indulge my kids to participate as they experience enjoyment on what daddy does. Knowing that Ultimate Athletics is always available, makes it a worthwhile travel from Abu Dhabi to Dubai. All thanks to Coach Lisa and all the other coaches. God bless you all and keep inspiring athletes!
