Success story

CROSS COUNTRY
BY KIERAN!
“Yes!” I thought as I woke up. “Today’s the day for cross-country.”
Once I got dressed in my uniform I packed an energetic lunch and we went to school. Everyone was hyped for the big race.
We walked over to the club grounds lined up in age groups and waited patiently.
Then it was finally time for our race. We lined up… ready… set… GO! We were off. I slipped back early but was gaining fast.
When we were near the end I said to myself ’’Kieran you need to get moving.”
In the end I came fourteenth but that’s pretty good for me!

  1. Good on you for showing persistence in the run! That definitely shows success even if you weren't one of the placegetters!

    Well done on sorting your ideas/events into paragraphs.

    Have you thought about other details that you could have included eg a description of the other runners, or describing how your muscles were feeling? That sort of detail really helps the reader to understand what is happening. - Mrs C/Mum
