Good Times!

Great, right once I was starting to get good at running, Cross Country is done! My last meet on Thursday, I got 14:17 which, of course is my best time. I'm super bummed that it's over already, but I'll still work out, stay fit, and of course, try harder. The first meet was at a school in Hemet called Dartmouth, it was the easiest to me because we had to do two laps that were pretty big. It made about 1.8 miles. The second one was so hard and confusing! When I thought I was almost there at the finish line, a lady said, " Good job, you're almost there, only half a mile left." I was thinking, ONLY, you call that ONLY! I thought I was done you lady! Well that one was of course hard. Then the third one was hard, there were hills and rocks and dirt, so every like ten seconds somebody in front of me would like kick dirt. If you think about it, walking up a hill is hard enough, but running!, that's like impossible. So, that one was like woah, cause it was also hot. The last meet, was at Valley Wide, it was pretty hard. Mr. Apel, my coach, said it would be as flat as a pancake. When we walked it first, to see where we were going, it was definitely not flat as a pancake! I nearly tripped, but I didn't. But, I have to say, i liked it afterwards the most cause we had a pizza party!!!! Well, all I can say for those meets is, Good Times!
