Cross Country Success
The sun gleamed off the visitors cars in the morning mist of anderson park. All the year 4 to year 6 classes strode to the pre arranged cross country course.
We were second after the girls they lined up at the starting positions. We screamed as they rounded the first corner... WHOOOSH! They sped past us! Aotea won, takitimu, 2nd and tainui 3rd
2 minutes later and they finished and now it's was our turn we line up Hugh and Matthew next to me,
“On your marks, gets set…” CLAP!
I ran a bit slower than I could at the start, then sped up the closer I got to the finish line the faster I got. At three meters then I boosted it across the finish line…
I got 3rd! I whooped as I walked back our team to With Matthew 2nd and Zach 1st. I was exceedingly tired because of that so I walked slowly to the fence and sat on a post and smiled broadly at my amazing victory.
