Athletics day recount

When i got to Athletics day on Friday 13th November i knew immediately that it was going to be the most tiring day of my life.

When we got to dairy flat schools athletics day on Friday 13th November (black Friday) the most challenging thing for Rimu (my house) was to win athletics day.

When it was time to go to High Jump for the year 5 boys A-team we went over to the terf and sat on the bench. Then Mrs Mowat told us to get on the side that we were comfortable with to jump over the high jump bar. When Mrs Mowat put up the High Jump bar to the inter schools mark I jumped and failed and Joshua McGill and Luke Grogler made it and they qualified for inter-schools then josh came first luke came second and i came third.

Next we went to discus when we got there we sat in a line behind william and waited until Mrs Thompson got there josh was bragging about how he was going to come 1st when it was my turn after josh luke was coming 1st and josh 2nd i had my throw and i couldn't believe it i was coming first!!!!!!!!! Then we had our 2nd turn and luke just beat me so Luke came 1st I came 2nd and josh came 3rd and we all qualified for inter-schools.

After that we went to long jump i went last to have a jump and i just missed qualifying for inter-schools and i just came 4th by 2 centimeters because i didn't jump off the board. Then we went to shot put i went last again and Luke was coming first and josh was coming 2nd when it was my turn i threw it as hard as i could into the air and i came 3rd and just missed qualifying and i was really sad that i didn't qualify.

After Morning tea the boys went to the sprints the year 0s went first when it finally got to the year 5 heats i was in the second year 5 heat and i came first for my heat and got into the 50 meter sprint final. When we got to the year 5 finals i got beaten by josh by an inch and i was so sad. Then when we got to the 80 meter sprints i came first in the 1st heat again. Then when it was time for the final i came 2nd by 2cm  and i was the most saddest boy in the world and the most tired as well.

I was the happiest boy when i qualified for races and i would you would enjoy it as well.
