Cross country

 On Monday we had our school cross country carnival.  We had to run around the oval and then out of the gate and up the road until we went back into the school near the junior playground. We then had to run through the playground, and then back onto the oval again.   It was very hard to run up the hills.

It was both exciting and tiring to do the cross country.  A lot of children had very tired legs by the end of the carnival.  Others had dry throats and some people had to walk some of the way.  It was a hot day, so we got hot and tired too during the race. After, we had to make sure we drunk plenty of water and cooled down.

When we got to the end of the race, everyone got a ticket that showed you the place you came in the race. Two people from our class, Abby and Coalby, received a trophy for being the fastest junior girl and boy runner on the day.

We had to go back to class after lunch but all we really wanted to do was to have a long sleep somewhere.

Even though we were hot and tired, it was still a fun morning.

Would you have liked to have taken part in our cross country carnival?

Do you think you would have cared where you came in the race?
