Valerie wins Silver!

It was horrific that Valerie Adams did not win gold but also very great because she won Silver. Valerie was just beaten by a few centimeters. In first place was american athlete Michelle Carter who scored 20.63m in ther last attempt to place for the medals. Valerie had scored 20.42m in her 2nd attempt and on her last attempt to beat Michelle Carter's score she fell a little flat. She scored 20.39, I think.

Though Valerie didn't win gold, she put in a lot of work to qualifying at the Olympics.
