The Ancient Olympics

 
  1. Pentathlon – an event where athletes had to compete in five separate activities – running, long jump, discus, javelin and wrestling. Javelin is a sport where an athlete throws a long sword-like spear as far as they can. Discus is similar to javelin but, instead of throwing a spear, the athlete throws a flat disc.                                     

 
I have chosen the sport pentathlon because my mum loved to play it back in her country and because it sounds really fun to play.
