Jude's Duathalon Experience!!!

My heart was thumping, the butterflies in my stomach were squirming and right then I thought: i'm going to lose! As i hopped into the pool I felt a nervous shiner crawl up my spine. I looked to my left and right, the girls beside me looked very confident. Suddenly my mood changed, I was determined! Mr Saunders blew his whistle and off we went. We did two lenths of the pool and I was super fast! Before I knew it I was out of the pool running the track! I paced myself while the kids cheered me on. I was running like an ostrich getting chased by a tiger! As soon as I got out of the pool mrs Katon took my picture and cheered me on too! As soon as I got to the finish line I felt puffed and energetic! I couldn't believe it, no one had passed me and that means I won! After mourning tea I volenteered to be the rabit for the little children. I spent the whole middle block running the track showing them where to go! They were sooo cute! In the afternoon I got an ice-block for helping out. It was quite hot but it was worth the wait! I'm glad I didn't back out!
