The javelin throw is a track and field event where the javelin, a spear about 2.5m (8ft 2in) in length, is thrown. The javelin thrower gains momentum by running within a predetermined area. Javelin throwing is an event of both the men's decathlon and the women's heptathlon.
History
The javelin was part of the pentathlon of the Ancient Olympic Games beginning in 708 BC, in two disciplines, distance and target throw. The javelin was thrown with the aid of a thong, called ankyle wound around the middle of the shaft. Athletes would hold the javelin by the thong and when the javelin was released this thong unwound giving the javelin a spiraled flight.
Throwing javelin-like poles into targets was revived in Germany and Sweden in the early 1870s. In Sweden, these poles developed into the modern javelin, and throwing them for distance became a common event there and in Finland in the 1880s. The rules continued to evolve over the next decades; originally, javelins were thrown with no run-up, and holding them by the grip at the center of gravity was not mandatory. Limited run-ups were introduced in the late 1890s, and soon developed into the modern unlimited run-up.
Each athlete receives three throws in the qualifying round. All who achieve the qualifying distance progress to the final. If less than twelve athletes achieve this mark, then the twelve furthest throwing athletes reach the final. Each finalist is allowed three throws in last round, with the top eight athletes after that point being given three further attempts.

We all know the javelin throw is anything but easy however, there are some basics in this video to get you started.
General Notes:
1) The run up and cross steps do not need to be too aggressive when you're learning to throw. Take your time and keep them smooth and rhythmic and build your speed from there without sacrificing your throwing stance. If you don't throw much further with a longer or faster run up, back things off and build your standing throwing and posterior chain strength.
2) You'll notice during the video I discuss pushing up into the throw. This is a sensation I feel when pulling the javelin over my frame during delivery. This can help you from just spinning in place or getting a bit ...

3) Also be sure to avoid common pitfalls such as trying to create a large penultimate step and quick last two steps. Your throwing motion should unfold naturally and trying to create more than what your body can handle at a given time will slow your development as a thrower.

Empty room, it's a holiday, The sky, the walls, a familiar grey, If I could find some peace of mind... If one day again I'd feel the summer's breath... Oh, summerthrow. Summer, throw your arms around me, I want to see the sun again, Fill me with your dandelion wine, Summerthrow. Summer, catch me now, I'm falling on a winter field in rain, Cold yet melting down, without a hope, And I lost myself, I lost my soul, Oh, I need your summerthrow. Summer, throw your arms around me, I want to see the sun again, Fill me with your dandelion wine, Summerthrow, Summer, throw your hair about me, I want to feel and see your spirit, Oh, I want to see it shine. Pull me deep into your sky, I know those golden eyes have seen my failings and my shame, But I'm buried now inside the flame, fully claimed by the glow. Summerthrow, Summer, throw your arms around me, I want to see it shine, Summerthrow. Summer, watch me now, I'm weary, Could I rest here in your arms awhile and listen to your song? Now I feel I've got a home forever. Oh, summerthrow, Summer, throw your arms around me, I want to see the sun again, Fill me with your dandelion wine, Summerthrow, Summer, throw your hair about me, I want to feel and see your spirit, Oh, I want to see it shine. Summerthrow, Summerthrow. Summerthrow,
