New Plymouth cross country

Part One of the Cross Country

Nerves were taking over my brain. My legs pounding with every movement. The stress was getting to me.My heart was pounding 100 miles an hour and this was before the race was even started. READY SET GO!!! I knew that the minute I ran all the pressure would get to me, but those three words kept echoing in my mind "Ready,Set,Go"  "Ready,Set,Go"  "Ready,Set,Go"  "Ready,Set,Go" .I didn't realize but half the runners were already ahead of me. The thought of what I was getting into was unbearable. Pain was burning my side when people rammed me into the side rope. I didn't realize but a big pile of collapsed boys was right in front of me."Collapsed boys I didn't want to end up like them" I thought to myself as my legs felt powerless. In front the track started to narrow down more and more and more, soon all the runners were running in single file and at least 5 people tried to pass me but the just got rubbed against the small fence. Then a sudden jolt of speed enhanced my performance. Nothing much happened until the farm, that's where things got interesting.
