West Coast Cross Counrty

I was so happy I was going back to West Coast Cross Country but sad as well because it was my last year doing it at Paroa. I was feeling good about myself now that was finally allowed to run again because I had an ankle problem and I haven't run for at least 8 months and it was hard because I loved to run bur I had to make it though and now I'm back to running. When we arrived and it was time for the year 8 girls to race I was ready. Take you mark... get set... GO!! I ran as fast as I could to past lots of people before we got into the tight part of the race. One lap to go and I was in 2nd, I could see the finish line up ahead and sprinted as fast as I could, but when I looked at the number on the card they gave me it had a 2 on it. I saw that a girl that had finished first, I was a bit sad but I still knew I was going to the Canterbury Cross Country.
