It was Cross country today! “Yay!” shouted some kids in my class. We went outside, and then Mr Faulder shouted “Go!” and then we were off. My heart started beating as sweat dripped down my forehead. Then I came past Mr G (our awesome teacher) and as I sped past, he said that I was 5th place. Finally I could see the finish line, and I got 5th place.

Today the whole Puriri team went to cross country. I heard lots of kids cheering for other kids and me. I felt sick when I was running and felt nervous in the beginning. My tummy went up and down. I saw kids running without  stopping.

It was cross country and everyone shot off like the wind. I could barely catch up. I felt like there were 1000 people around me when I was running. I saw everyone calling, “Let's go,  Navala, let’s go!” It sounded horrible. My body felt like stone when I had to walk up those steep steep stairs. I heard people yelling, “Go go go go go go!” to their friends.

Mrs Mudgway blew the whistle and the cross country year 3 boys run started. I felt good even though I was at the back. I saw lots of cars and trees. My body felt like a rock. I heard cars and birds and the wind. At the end of the race, I came 9th.

I went to cross country. I felt scared. I heard cars and kids shouting out names. The kids were doing hand games and I got tired of running but the best thing was I can always have fun.

We went to cross country. I came 14th place. My dad came to watch me. My heart was beating very fast because I was very excited. I saw everyone speeding down to the park around the school and up to the finished line. I heard people cheering and clapping when I racing down to the finished line. I was very proud of myself and my class.

“Ready set go!” shouted Mr Faulder and all year 3 girls raced off like a flash. The first one was Tabatha. She came first .Then after the year 3 race, the year 3 boys raced. The year 4 girls were starting. We warmed up first. We raced to the end and Mikayla came first (she always comes first). When I was running my throat was dry I felt like I was gonna pass out. My body felt weird and tired but I got it over with. IT WAS FUN.
