Tautoro School Cross Country

First Whaea Rosina said, “Ready, set, go!”  

I raced like a deer and I raced fast as I could I run. It was Wednesday morning. Tautoro school students were at Mrs Paraha’s farm for the Tautoro School Cross Country race.

I ran with the 7 year old boys and girls and the 8 year old boys and girls. We had to run 2 laps around Mrs Paraha’s  farm. When I was racing down the hill fast as I could my mum said, “Go Ariaana!”

When I was on my second lap my legs felt like  wobbly jelly. My heart was pumping so fast. My lungs felt like they were going to explode. But I didn’t give up. I ran and ran and ran as fast as a car. I kept going till I got to the finish line. Then I found out that I came 4th in the race. I felt very tired and sore but I was proud to finish my race. That was awesome.
