Athletics Day


When I was 9 years old, our school had an Athletics Day. We all competed in lots of,events like High Jump, Long Jump, Vortex, Shot Put, Discus and Sprints.
First,it was a sunny day. We ran to the courts where heaps of crunchy leaves were. When all the colour houses were sitting down on the green tiger-turf courts, Mr K said, "March to the field."
St Anne, the yellow house, went first, then St Anthony, the blue house, St Francis, the green house, and Joseph, the red house .
Next, we did discus. I was feeling nervous. I threw the black discus 12 m. It went flying through the air. The grass was green and wet. It made holes in the ground. I came first in my age group.There were marks where it went in to the ground. 

Finally, it was the sprints. We lined up in our age group. Girls raced then the boys raced. I ran as fast as a cheatah. I smoked them all. I came first in the 80m, 100m, 200m.
It was a fun day, but I was very tired when I got home from school that afternoon. I came first in everything.
