Teams Triathlon

I am freezing cold, with goose bumps and hairs standing on end.

I was at the School swimming pool for the team’s triathlon on the 25^th of February 2009.

From the time I came to school, to the time we raced, I was as nervous as nervous as could be.

It was a long wait till it was my teams heat.

BANG!!!

Splash we all dived and we were off to a flying start. My

heart was pounded and I believed in myself that my team could win. One of the adults teams was well ahead, I didn’t want to get beaten so I pushed harder and persevered in myself.

There was 5 meters left in the pool. I got out and ran to find Alex. He yelled and yelled, I found him and tagged him.

We triumphantly won the year 5/6 boys.

It was the day minutes until the triathlon Liam hasn’t arrived yet and he was doing the running. Then I remembered that he had tutoring. I discussed it with Tom the cyclist. We came to a agreement. It was that I had to do the running instead.

Mr Norton started to talk he called out numbers then he called out ours. I went to line up for the swim. I was feeling very nerves. The juniors went and then it was time for me. The horn went. I dived into the pool I started to do freestyle. I finished the swim I got out of the pool ran to Tom. I tagged him. He went off speeding.

I went back into the changing room. I got changed as fast as I could. I ran to the biking change over. I had spectacular luck. I got there just in time for him to tag me. I ran off. I could hear the screams from the finished line until the end of the village.

I ran through the native area and onto the road. When I got to the field I saw Jake. I caught him up. I ran the field with him. I was up to the sprint. Jake sprinted off. We raced each other. Unfortunately he bet me by two seconds. That’s how close it was. Jake didn’t boast about it luckily.
