Triathlon
‘’Go, Go!’’ I shouted as the boys ran past. (Turns out little kids are pretty fast.) I was so excited. ‘’Year 3 and 4s please line up here’’ directed Mrs Gardiner. Year 3 girls were first then year 3 boys. Finally it was year 4 girls.
First girls swam 2 lengths of the deep cold pool. Honestly, it was so cold and so deep. My arms were going as fast as they could. My arms felt like propellers on a helicopter. I did like four rainbow arms and then took a breath.
Next we hopped out and got a bike. I walked it to the gate. We got on at Mrs Craig and rode it down Mr Lawrence's driveway to Mrs Clarke. I went wide and then in another gate, around the bike track to the big rock. Then we hopped off and lined our bike up.
Finally we ran to the empty bike shed and around the back to the pumpkin patch (which doesn’t really have any pumpkins). Then we raced to Nanny Pam and up the steep hill to Jamie's mum, down past the playground and across the finish line. “Do you want some milk?” asked Mrs Whitelaw. “Yes please,” I said with a puff. I drank it then I folded it. The memo for the milk is Drink it dry, Fold it flat Send it back.
Brooke and I were watching the Year 5 and 6s do their bits and pieces. Brooke was begging me to ask if we could go to the bake sale. I said we can go after the race. When the race was finished we got Leonor and set sail for the bake sale. Brooke got 3 cupcakes, Leonor got 4 and shared them and I got 5 different but tasty cupcakes!
