Cross Country by Aaron

Today I went to school for cross country. When I went to school I felt nervous.  Then I went to line up for cross country. It was time for the year three boys to go.  We ran three and a half laps. At the beginning everybody rushed to the finish line like a racing car. I was puffed out but I said to myself keep on going.  Then I came eighth it was a hard race. I heard a lot of cheering you had to get two marks before you finish. If you were first,second or third you got a certificate at assembly. Blue certificates were for first, yellow were for second and red were for third.
