Cross Country

The cross country day was on Monday the 7th of September. Cross country is the day where the whole of Point England School runs in their year group. There are 4 house colours which is (Tokite Temu) (Te Aroha) (Tainui) (Matatua). Tokite Timu is yellow Te Aroha is red Tainui is blue and Matatua is green.

On the beautiful day of Monday we had lunch early at 12:15. Because at lunch time which is at 1:00 it is when our whole school starts the cross country. The first runners we're the year 1’s then it carries on up until the year 8’s.

We sat in the sun all day waiting for our turn to run. Then few hours past by and it was the year 8 girls to run. The year 8 girls had to line up in a line and walk onto the hard grass. Everyone was in there starting position. As Mr Burt smacked his two woods together we all ran. I was running and I was huffing and puffing threw out the whole race. I felt sweat dripping down my forehead.

Half way threw the race I walked for quite a long time. I ran out of breath and my legs we're so sore I could hardly walk. The finish line was just a few steps a head of me. I walked for about just a few minutes then I ran the rest of the way. While I was running I felt like I wanted to stop and walked the whole way but I chose to the run the rest.

Passing the finish line was the best feeling. I felt nervous at the start but now I feel proud of myself. Now that the cross country is over I can finally rest my sore legs.

Nice recount Ata! In the future, I would love to see you use figurative language in one of your descriptions. I am so proud of you for finishing off your race like a champion!
