Colour Kaitaia!!

A few weeks ago we had a 5 km fun run at our towns A&P ¨ agricultural and pastoral ¨show grounds. We walked down from our school to the A&P show grounds  with the other participants from our school.

we arrived down at the showgrounds. We saw other schools from different places, there weren't many runners. Then some adult runners had arrived, after that a few daycare's and kindergartens came with them. Then the DJ got some older kids from another school they got up on the back of a trailer and did some stretching before the big run we had to do. Right when we finished stretching we went over to the starting line which was also the ending and then...ON YOUR MARKS, GET SET, ¨get ready! I  said GO!!! off I went, there were people flying pass me I was sprinting as fast as I can I looked back at all my friends and everyone else it looked like I was running away from a horde of  elephants!

There were so many people behind and in front of me I passed heaps of people because they started to slow down and once I got to the 3 km mark I slowed down. Then I saw the finish line with bins full of cold water. I was so thirsty I needed a rest so I started running as fast as I could.

I had done it, I finished the race. All of my energy has been drained from my body I was exhausted I couldn't be able to do anything. About 10 minutes later, all my friends came back exhausted and tired.

By the time we got back up to school we were all exhausted and tired.it was super fun I wish we can do it next year. #lets color Kaitaia!
