Cross Country

Yesterday was Cross Country. First up was the year seven girls, then the year seven boys. Then it was us. We took some time to warm up. We were at the starting line I tried to will myself to run. The whistle blew. Although I didn't hear it everyone else did. We ran. I tried to run but I couldn't for some reason. I could run but slowly, it was like a torture, a gruelling torture, stuck in slow motion when I knew I could run faster. I came in 226th.
