Cross Country

This week at school we had Cross Country. It's not my favorite thing but,I try my best every year. Just as always syndicate 3 and 4 stomp our feet and clap we do it every year at big events like this. It took a long time for year 6 girls but to pass the time we and my friends talked as normal as the first couple of age groups went by everyone cheered for the kids that passed by to give them a big boost.
After all the age groups and year 5 boy and girls it was finally year 6 girls I was so scared I would come last my tummy started to twist and turn. All the year 6 girls lined up beside me I had Summer of the left and Jessica on my right I waited for the signal to go when I heard it I ran as fast as I could I was behind some of the other girls but in front of the others I ran up to the hurdles I jumped over all if them then through the gate pass some of the enthusiastic parents cheering us on ''GO GO GO'' we ran over the hill my heart pounding ''BANG BANG''   I had the stitch so badly it was hard to breathe. I keeped going and going I ran down the hill the stitch wasn't going to stop me I ran through the car park around the court and onto the field all the parents cheered I ran through the hoops and around to the goal post to get my mark then  keeped running a and running up to the hurdles I jumped over all of them I keeped running past some of the teachers the stitch got worst but Jessica B said ''come on you can do it'' so I ran in front of her but I got to the corner were Miss Leigh was she said ''come on Rikki you can do it''  I had to slow down but only for a while the Jessica catches up she keep saying ''come on'' so we ran I ran in front of her to the hoops and ran through all of them and keeped running but slowed down again  waited for Jessica but she didn't until I was almost around the corner but we ran up to Miss Power and Miss Hines ran under the goal post to,the desk that were placed in the middle of the field then got my place and we both came 9th place and to make it even better we came in the top ten.
