The grass tickled my feet as I walked along the field, it was Athletics Day and Takahe was going win this year! I could feel a knot tied around my waist and every step I took towards the track it tightened up. We had Long Distance first the most breath taking sport, I lunged towards to the track and placed my foot behind the white line. It was like we were in a slow motion movie when everyone tried to squeeze onto the shorter grass. People fell, slipped and walked along the way but I tried my hardest to not do those things. I could hear dozens of people taking huge breaths and so did I.
Rocks were glued onto my feet as I sat down drinking water, I had just pasted the finished line and I got 4 points for Takahe. I laid down onto the thick grass and looked at the grey clouds, I thought it was going to rain but the clouds seemed to look at me happily. Is that bad or good? I couldn't tell but my day was just about to start.
