Cross Country

On Tuesday the whole school walked down to Ahuriri Park for cross country. Everyone was involved, even the new entrants. I had to run 2000 m which is 2 k. The reason we did it was to earn house points and to keep fit. At the start of my race I started really fast but towards the end I started to feel really tired. On my second lap I started to sprint past Annabel because I thought I was on my last lap, but when I saw people doing another lap I puffed and panted past all the cheering parents and children. Then I SPRINTED to the finish past everyone going faster when I heard everyone cheering me on! It was a brilliant day and I came 14th!! The only parts that I didn't like was that Blue House came 3rd and it was really hot!
