I could feel butterflies crazily flying around in my stomach as I waited for the two pieces of wood to clap together. If you are wondering what I am talking about here is your answer. It was the cross country day, on the 16th of September! Before our turn we had to wait for all the other years to go. Finally it was our turn, the year 5 girls. So let's get back to the start of the story.
Clappp! The two pieces of wood went as Mr Sommervillle slapped them together. We all bolted off trying to stay within the group. Matalita was taking the lead while all of us other girls were close behind. When we turned around the goal post most of the girls started to slow down except for some of us. Then we got up to the gate and I still didn’t stop yet.I was so puffed that I was willing to stop, but I did not give up. I went through the gate and lot’s of girls were screaming because they were “scared” of the mud. It was so muddy and I kind of enjoyed it, it was fun. I got past the mud and I got to the big square. I ran around it and caught up to Gabby
we ran together and we both could see the finish line ahead. I was so relieved. Gabby ran past me and nearly went past the finish line, but I bolted with all my power and we tied 6th place out of everyone, but out of our school we placed 4th. This was one of the hardest runs of my life, I was exhausted. I grabbed a drink bottle and drank all of it. I was so proud and tired.
In conclusion running the cross country race wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. Maybe one day you could run a cross country race.
