What time is it? It's Cross Country Time!

Prior to the holidays we had started to practise for our school cross country. Each day we would add another minute we had to run for or an extra lap of the field we had to do. Some of us kept practising over the holidays but others did not.

On the day of the event we were all excited but a little bit nervous too. The ground was a little bit muddy and wet but the weather was fine and not too cold. The Year 4 race started at 1.45pm and the Year 5 race at 2.05pm.  Ms Lange helped us to warm up our muscles and then we were off. It wasn't just a case of running, we had to go over some obstacles too.



This is the course the Year 4's ran.

This is the course the Year 5's ran.

Ms Dods and Mrs Taylor were really impressed with our stamina and determination to finish the course. They said we were awesome. We were all impressed with all the parents who came to support us. Some of them even chose to run with us. Would we do it again? No! However we may think about doing it again next year :)
