Unfortunately, the Gods didn't hear Grace's prayer. The match on the next day was another sport from the track and field events, the triple jump.
Aglea gave a simple brief introduction before turning silent and simply watching, leaving the participants to figure out the rest for themselves. She was now waiting for someone to volunteer to be the first jumper.
"Uh… Is this triple jump sport the same as the long jump?" Stefan asked.
"No. It's different. It's in the name, you jump three times," Jack answered.
"Why?"
Jack shrugged. "I don't know, it's not my invention. Well, maybe because you can get a further distance than a long jump, because… you know, you jump three times."
"Why don't they just give us a simple sport?" Winson complained.
"You should be thankful they didn't ask us to do gymnastics," Jack said.
"There is still tomorrow," Dina reminded.
