"I was really pleased with the shot put. I've been throwing and training like almost every session in the last few weeks. We knew we left a big one out there in Hayward, like my biggest throw was in the warm-up, I left it in the warm-up. So, really pleased to get it in a competition and starting with that for something that's new to me but I'm happy that I handled it well."
