My cross country experience

 On Thursday I woke up with a fuzzy feeling in my tummy it was cross country day. I got dressed quickly and woke my mum up. We got into the car and of we went talking excitedly about the day ahead. When we got there we had to walk along a muddy track. At the end of the track was the race it wasn't as muddy as last year.

I put my bag on to the mat and went to find my friends. Soon the races began. Before my race there were lots more and I will tell you them. First the year eights went then the year sevens then six's, fives and threes plus a few which you can count. Just before my race was my sisters race I saw her struggling up the big hill. Next was my race I was happy and scared at the same time. Mrs Cutler said 'three two one go and of we went. I thought that I would lose but I did a good job of coming third. Once the race was finished I had a yummy hot dog then we went home.

When we got home the first thing I did was flop down on bed and go to sleep. when I woke up I had to go to swimming I tried to talk my mum out of it because I was so tired and cold, but she would not listen to me. When I got in the pool I liked it and when that was finished we went home. a few days later I was proud to hear that I got into the finals.
