Cross Country.

Today we did our school cross country over at Dunkirk park. I was pumped to race then it started to rain. I was actually quite excited to run in the rain. We waited for our turn and finally it was time. We ran off, I kept my pace. I could see Thomas and Gozan in front, I was feeling puffed. My heart was racing, I didn't want to hit the wall (when your legs are too tied to run and your head can't cope with it and you blackout!) Then I realized it was the final lap, I was so happy to hear that. I finally finished the 4 laps, I came 4th!

Cross Country Training.

We have been training for our school cross country. The one thing I know to do all the time is to breath in and out and try to make my lips into a circle. I need to try to run at a normal pace and not to sprint to start with. I had fun training and it will be an exiting time for the real race.

Cross Country 2015

Today we had cross country, it was fun and hard. We got tired very easily! We started off it was the year 7 race. I lined up waiting to start "Smash!" went the wooden banger. We all ran to start with I was coming 3rd then we got to Mrs Benli who was marking where to go. Then we got to Mrs Prasad, then we got Mrs Millward. We then had to run back, I was then coming 5th. Then Manu stopped and I got in front but soon again he cut in front. When We got near the finish line Zahn came 1st, Gozan came 2nd and Thomas came 3rd. When me and Manu got to the finish line we tied until he took one step and he crossed it before me. When we crossed we both collapsed face forward on the grass, and we got up and walked back to our buddies and lay tired for a few minutes on the ground.It was awesome but tiring.

Cross country

On Wednesday the 24th of September the cross country people went to Bailey Road School to compete in the inter school.

We all got out of the bus and walked into the school.It was cold so I put my jumper on. We all got some bands with colours on them, the year six people had dark orange bands we waited and waited for our turn to run.

Me and Thomas went on the park until it was our turn. We waited for the lady to say go it took three minutes until we stared because the year six girls were still racing.When she said go we all ran I was trying to get to the front but lots of people were faster then me. I ran down a hill then up a hill which was very muddy I had bare feet because my brother had shoes on and he slipped twice when he raced.

We had to run twice round the road then up and down hills on grass and then to the finish line.I saw a guy in front of me and saw no one in front of him. I did not know if he was coming first or 4th he got to the finish line and I did to. I was so tired I was dizzy.I nearly fell on the ground. My Mum,dad,Aunty and Nana were at the finish line waiting for me the lady wrote my place on my hand and I came 5th place. Thomas came 6th and Tai came 9th so I'm proud I got that score.
