On the 24th of May we had Cross Country at 2pm. We went out the watch the serious runners do their 3 laps first.
First, we sat down behind our cone. When we were sitting behind our cone the little kids started running. I felt nervous waiting and excited at the same time.
Next, Miss Wise let us through a gate to the starting line. We were racing with Rooms 13 and 10. "On your marks, get set". SNAP! went the clappers. We were off and racing! I was stuck in a mess of runners but I got in front of them I ended up beside my friend Milla from Room 13.
Then I caught up to Lucy and Ruby(Lucy's sister), they were in the lead! I came first equal with Lucy and Ruby.
My favourite part was coming 1st because I have never came 1st before and I bet all the big Room 10 kids.
