I’m at the starting line, nervous and shaky. Maybe this could be the year. SMACK go the clappers and the race begins. Kids start running. “Ogh, ogh” people say as they tumble over. I’m running as fast as i can. I’ve got to catch up to Blake. Great I’ve caught up. Now i’m ahead of him. I’m coming up to the beginning of lap 2. “Hooray go William”I hear people shout as i pass the finish line.
Now i’m on to lap 2. As i come up to the jump pit Ben comes zooming past. Oh no now he’s way up ahead. My throat is on fire and my legs are dying. I go around the senior playground. I race past the finish line onto lap 3. Air whooshes past as i go zooming. The teachers shout “ go go go, you're doing great!”
I speed to the senior playground. People start saying “ someone's behind you, come on.” I look back. Its Blake. But as i look back I realise i’m at finish line already. Mrs letting gives me a stick. Hooray,I got third place. It's not first but it's a good place to come. That was my cross country.
