Cross Country Day!

I could see this race of leg torture coming to an end as I puffed my way up the muddy slope that we call a hill. Heta urged me to hurry up and Miss Mules endorsed me to catch up to Julia who had helped me through the whole course, four times. It really was not as simple as it looked.

 "Skyla hurry up! Miss is coming for your head! Even an old lady is gonna bet you!" people in the crowd would chant continuously.
I was so pumped to start running at the beginning of the day, as I watched the Year 6 Girls & Boys. Cheering as they sprint past me, I thought to my self they were just being lazy. Now I know how they felt!

Catching my breath as It ran along with me was a difficult task at the time, my face felt like an Oven on fullblast. The crowd started cheering for Julia & I as we left a trail of History for every step. 
My top was gluing to my skin. 

Cheering echoes between my ears as I proudly, but exhaustively cross the finish line and rush past the gazebo. During assembly, we found out that for once; Mary McKillop had won! 218 points for our Whanau house! I came last place, but I don't care, at least I won't have to do it again!
