Sedighi: God Gave Me a Nudge So I Wouldn't Lose My Way

Sadegh Samimi said: I wanted to give up sports, but God gave me a nudge to keep me from losing my way.

According to the Sports Se report and quoted by Arjan's ambassador, Sadegh Samimi, the discus throw bronze medalist of the Nagoya Asian Games, said: I was in military service two years ago, but the federation trusted me and I entered the camp. The conditions were such that I was tired of sports, but after attending the camp, the conditions changed. After the end of my military service, I wanted to give up sports, but it was as if God turned my back on me so that I wouldn't lose my way.

The national track and field athlete continued: At first, I entered the camp by force, but after a year, I continued to try even though I still had a negative mentality. I had a hip injury six months ago, but they helped me to come back.

Sadegh Samimi stated: Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province has won many medals in athletics and I am currently with the elders of the province. Our province has great power in discus throwing. When I entered this field, I became very interested in it and was ready to walk miles for it.

He said: I suffered a lot in these few years, but in these two years I realized that someone is paying attention to us. Now that we are here, we are indebted to Ehsan Haddadi and the staff of the Athletics Federation. In the end, I request the authorities to pay special attention to athletics. If it pays attention, athletics can win medals in the next Olympics.
