Cross Country Race
My age group was called. My heart was racing out of my chest, I was terrified to start the race.
BANG!!!!! Go the clappers, the race has begun.
I stumble at the beginning.
People pass me, I’m not last but I'm not first.
I hear the crowd cheering people on, I hear names being called, teachers are calling my name!
My breath was out of reach.
I was on my second lap, people cheered my name.
Sweat dribbled down my hairline, I was hot.
When I was on my third lap I was tired, people cheered I had finished the race.
The race has finally finished.
My hard work and training made me improve.
I was exhausted and happy the race was finally over!!!
