It’s really
heart breaking to hear what has happened in your country. It must be very hard
for you figuring out where to sleep and difficult to find food and water to
drink. I am from New Zealand where not many disasters happen so I could not imagine
what you are feeling like right now. Our country has sent many rescue teams to
come and help re-build your city. Our school has fund-raised some money for you
to help with all the costs of re-building your city. Don’t worry you’re going
to be alright.
As I practically
fell over the finish line I felt amazingly good just participating. I felt
really proud although the run was super exhausting.
I got a lot of support from the marshals especially Matty and Reid they were
very supportive friends.
It felt like I was going to die but the support boosted me up again. It tasted like
sweet joy just knowing that I had completed the track.
All I could see was fresh cut grass and mud everywhere. I could smell nice fresh
air. I am really proud of myself even though I didn’t come first I still got 5
points for my team. By Chirah

The moment has finally arrived, my legs feel like jelly. I can feel the tension in the air. The slippery mud sits there waiting to trip me up. I wait for the hooter to go off “On your marks get set… HOOT”. We all took off. I turned the corner a bit too fast. I almost slipped over in the mud. I could smell the damp ground as my feet pounded across the soft grass.I could see all the people in front of me. I could taste the hot air as I breathed in and out faster and faster. Finally I crossed the finish line…
