Yesterday was the School Cross Country day. Everyone was ready for the big day. We had been previously training most days for this so that we were positive we could make. We went down to the Mt Wellington War Memorial Park where our running track had been set. The whole school were all ready in their mufti for the fun muddy run. It first started with the youngest students first. The sun was shinning and there were only a few clouds in the sky. The kids ran as fast as they could being cheered on by the rest of the school. Then as the day went on and there were more races, it started to rain and spit down on us. This was frightening to the classes that haven't run yet. It started to get cold so we done some stretches and exercises to warm us back up. Then it was the final race, the year 7 and 8 boys. This was my time to run. I got ready at the start line as the starter set us off. It was a tiring run but I had to pace myself so that I could survive the whole race. Four laps was a lot of laps for that course we ran yesterday. There was no doubt that no one had fun because it looked like everyone did!
