Pentathlon 2011

I jumped out of the mini van at Massey University Athletic Track. I was a little nervous and excited all at the same time. I looked around and I saw some other schools there. The first event was 60m sprint "On your marks, get set! BANG" I was off running as fast as I could over the finish line. Yay! I had won. The next events were shot put and discus. I had to throw each 3 times. The competition was tough. I threw my hardest and I won both those events as well! I couldn't believe it. We then moved to Long Jump. I was thinking, "Oh No! I hate this one!" I ran along the strip and skipped into the sand. I came last in that event. The last event was the 400m. I was getting really nervous as I watched the races before me. Then it was my turn. I lined up with the other girls, my heart was racing. The gun went, "BANG!" I ran as fast as I could. I came around the final bend, down the straight. I could see the finish line. "Come on Sarah!" I said to myself. I dug it in and crossed the line. I couldn't believe I had won! Overall 10 year old girl winner, I felt very proud of myself!
