Cross Country

Yay! One day before Cross Country and I was feeling Excited because I like Cross Country. On Friday the 17th of August Pt England School had Cross Country.

It was a huffing and puffing day for Pt England because we had to run 3 kilometres but also we had very good helpers to help us they were from Telecom.

The house captains for Takitimu was Vanilla and Kade they are very good captains. As soon as the lunch bell rang we all ran straight to class to get change before 12.30. As the clock striked 12.30 we lelf to go to the netball courts and lined up into our age groups.

When it got up to 12 years old girls I was nervous because my tummy had butterflies when we got up to go to the start line Miss Flavelle told me to come frist but I said ‘’I don’t know because stephanie was racing with me’’ then she said ‘’try’’ and I said ‘’okay’’ then the 12 year old girls started to go then I ran because I wasn’t ready.

When I was running I saw Stephanie stop so then I realize that my cousin Alexandria was coming 2nd and when we went pass Miss Walters telling us to go around the cone. Then when we went pass Miss Walters I got stuck in the mud then Alexandria ran in front of me then my foot got out and I started to keep running I caught up to my cousin and I went in front of her and when we got up to Mr Somerville and Mr Marks we keep running then we got onto the shelly white shells.

And then threw the bush as soon as we saw Huelo- Ata we started to flow her because didn’t know where to go then we saw a man from Telecom cheering me and my cousin on we keep running and when we got onto this bridge Mr Barks took a photo of us and then told us to keep running  when we finish coming out of the bush walk we had to run 1 lap around the reverse field then back into the school gates. With the school cheering us on when I finshed I was so happy it was over.
