Cross Country


My head running with excitement

Will I get to the top ten, or the top 5?

I remember everything may dad told me.

Will I get better results than last year?

Bang! We’re off!

Nervously I sprinted the first fifty metres and then my stomach started burning like fire as I ran along the camp ground track.

My legs were jellyish and nerves are greater than when I was at school.

Round the last bend, trying to sprint, but my legs won’t go faster.

14th! Happy, but puffed, and faster than last year.
