Cross Country Fun Run.

Yesterday our school had our Cross Country event, the crowd was very encouraging. All the senior school had moved to the shade underneath the trees. "Year 7 girls" said Mr Jacobsen, in my head I was thinking of not running because I had the butterflies & I was scared that might become the last person running. I started stretching when I was scared as. Then I heard "Year 7 boys" I started Jumping & lining up.
    On the starting line I was getting ready at I was putting my feet together because I was really really cold. Mr Burt explained what to do and when to start running, a few minutes later when the first girl came through the posts on the bottom field Mr Burt said "On your Marks, Get set" when he said get set. I was just eager to start sprint but that would be embarrassing. Then "Hooter sounded" then everybody started sprinting but me I was jogging then I started sprinting. Then I was tiered.
      2nd lap was on.. It was my  turn too slide while Miss Walters was cheering me on to slide I accelerated boom jumped up high & slid. I ended up dirty I smelt like horse poo. Then I quickly got up & started running again my legs I think my legs got dirty in under 3min. I was encouraged the whole way through the run & I loved it.
