Athletics day

By Teharangi

Every year we have Athletics Day.

some of us run up and down slow like a snail and fast like a car. I’m boiling hot like a egg laying on the stove out in the sun.

people are cheering as loud as I can to cheer people up when they are running.

Now I’m running it’s hot like a stove I say in my mind. I can I can do this. Then someone say’s “3,2,1 go” I wasn't listening when the girl started the countdown. I ran as fast as I could. I can do this I  say.

But I didn’t do it, instead I came last. but I was proud. I was so proud that I kept running. You can do it people said. I was very happy. Then I ran again and again and again. I was going to run again......But the bell went. “I’m glad that’s over” I  said. So we all go have a play in the sunshine all I  did was sit in the shade I was to tired to play. And I was saving my energy for the next race.

Then the bell went again.

I was all really to go. for some reason I felt amazing “WOW” I say. it was my turn to race.

I run and run and run. an then I came first. “yes“ I say in a tired voice. I sit down and have a rest.

“ my name is nick by the way, here are some things you might want to know about me. I like sport’s I’m cool, I’m smart, I’m good but I’m bad sometimes (only sometimes) I’m fast (well not really) oh and, I love school” And that’s all I guess. Oh and I love pet’s. Now that’s it.”

*The End*
