Last Monday it was a time where we had to run for cross country.
At 1:00 pm we had to line up and go to cross country. I quickly got changed and went into my house colour. I lined up and walked quickly to the courts and sat down on the ground.
It was the year 1 boys to run. They had so much energy in them they were ready to go. Mr Burt clapped the wood and the boys ran off fast. Out in the crowd there were parents and family cheering for their son and daughter hoping they would come 1st, 2nd, or 3rd.
Then it was the year 5 girls to run. I was so nervous I was getting goose bumps. Mr Burt said “on your mark get set GO”. He clapped the wood and straight off we were running our hardest. I was so tired sweat was dripping down but I never stopped. I was in the lead I couldn't believe it, I was coming 1st. I was nearly at the finish line. Their was girls behind trying to come 1st. But I was taking the lead.
When we got up to the finished line I was still running. I had a drink of water and sat down watching some other people run. Then we walked back to class we got our bags and shoes and went back home. It was the best day ever at cross country.
