Determined by Melvyn

Last Thursday we had cross country.  I was very hyperactive but still determined.  I was interested in the races.  When the year 5 girls went up to their race I was trying to see who had won.  The year 5 boys were very fast.  I wondered if I could beat one of them.  In my race I ran fast, jumped over a obstacles, kept running , jumped over a pole, then ran over mud and water.  Then I ran on the playground and jumped over a bench and ran rapidly past the finish line.  I was puffed and proud.  Then we went to class.  I felt like a champion.
