Ready, set, GOOOO!

Hi everybody!

In a couple of days, our cross country will take place. The 11 year old’s (that includes me) have to run 3 kilometres. So far, we have been practicing by having an endurance run every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. If we can’t do a day of running, we do it on Monday instead. Our endurance run is two laps of Area seven which is around half a kilometre. Some people get so tired just after two laps. If we just “translate” 3 kilometres it would be about twelve laps of Area seven, imagine that!

My best time for two laps ( half a kilometre) is 2 minutes and 42 seconds. It takes that long because it is in an oval and some of it is uphill. Some people are so fast that they can get around 1 minute and 30 seconds. So fast!

I will write a post on the cross country after we have had it. Hope to wrie more posts later on.

Bye!
