Triathlon writing

"Year 6 boy's go over to the start line!"Mrs Cuming yells out on the microphone. My heart starts racing feeling scared as I have ever been. So Jackson, Fisher and I walk over to the start. We had to go first while the girls were sitting down waiting. Mr Richardson started to say (on your masks ... get set ... GO). We started to sprint. Everyone was cheering us on full of excitement. Remy gets into the lead while Jackson and I were coming last. We sprint past the adults, we run behind the tank and through the gate. While we are still scared out of our pants the first person has already gone around the corner. I'm starting to puff and back through the gate we go. All the adults are still cheering us on as we are doing our half a lap. Our bikes are just ahead of us.I've finally passed 3 people.I get my helmet on and get on my bike and zoom off. There are marshalls down at the corner cheering me on. There is a person right in front of me so I pass him and go around the corner. The corner is a few metres in front so I start pumping it around the corner.Wossssssh ... down the hill pumping as fast as I can. Another person I front of me ... Try to speed up ... I'm catching up ... Around him but he his still right behind me. He's trying to catch up to me. He's so close but we are just about to hop off our bikes and run to the pool. Onto the gravel and off our bikes we go. I'm taking off my shoes and he's still trying I sprint to the pool. I'm using the last of my energy dive into the pool. He's starting to run. When I had already done 2 lengths he just hopped in. So I hop out and do my 4 lengths. Done too. Then on to my other two. I am puffing out my guts. I can't last but I've finished my lengths! I can hop out and run to the finish line. Everyone is cheering and I pass the finish line. I can't believe it. I get my number then I lie down proud as I have ever been. Nana takes my photo and then we walk off proud as.
