Cross Country 2015

Here are our thoughts on the race yesterday. 

When I first started it was scary. I wanted to go home but then I passed Daisy then it was fun. But my hips started to hurt. Then I saw the finish line and it was green. Cerys came first, Millie came second, Lilly came third and I came tenth. I felt proud.

Yesterday we did Cross country and I came 14th. My Dad wanted me to come first. I think next time I might win if I practise then I will get better. When I was going down from the gate I thought if I win I will be really happy.

When it was Cross Country I came eleventh! I ran on the green muddy grass. I ran to the dark green gate and back again. I heard my Mum cheering for me. I ran alot faster at the end.

I didn't win in the Cross Country. It is not fun at the Cross Country. I cried. We ran one race but Tamihana ran two laps. He is very fast.

On the day of the fun Cross Country I had to wait. Finally it was our turn. Bang! off we ran faster and faster down to the metal gray gate. At last there was the finish line Tye won, Max came second and I came third.

Yesterday I had an humungous race. I had a nasty hayfever. I came second and it felt sore! It was fun. The dark fence was green and it was short.

On the huge day of the Cross Country I passed Chance and Lexi. I was in the 6 year old group. I controlled my body super fast. When we stopped I came 6th. The yellow sun was shining. We exercised before we ran.

I can run faster and slowly as well but I can run fast with my friend Charliese. She is my good friend. She ran faster than me but the winner is Lilly. I am so proud of you, I like you running so good.

The Cross Country was fun because all the people was there. My leg was sore. It is a funny school and my Mum was funny too!! and Dad shouted Yay,Yay,Yay.

On Wednesday it was the Cross Country day. When Mrs Cornelius said Go! I jogged the whole way. When I got to the end I came fourth and I loved it.

In Room 1 we practised for Cross Country. I went around the huge field down to the gate around the field again. I liked it practising so much. Shame I did not come because I might have fainted because I was home sick.
