josh jack and sloane the cross country race was amazing but the stairs were plain torture ill never ever do it again the hills were fun going down because every step you took took you about two metres sloane this was the worst cross country ever because the stairs were definitely not my friend they almost killed me but the rest of the course wasn t that bad i guess josh i started off sprinting at the gate then i started a steady jog at the stairs i was tempted to go on the side but i stuck to the track the hills where fun because when you go down you get a head start at the end of the run i got the stitch jack.

jerome morris all of the year 6 boys waited at the start line staring at mr bell then suddenly the word go was shouted and we all scrambled frantically over each other to get to the front everyone formed a sort of line that trailed out of the small gate onto the footpath normally i would be a bit tired about in the middle of the track but that training we had done really paid off i wasn t even breathing heavily up until the stairs of course when i got to the top of the stairs i just felt like walking the rest of the course but i kept at a steady pace down the hill and around the corner there i could see the finish line in front of me i started sprinting and just finished after another boy who passed the line in front of me.
