Ohaeawai School Triathlon

“Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!!” My heart beat as Mrs Gardiner shouted out it’s Year 3 & 4 up next at the triathlon. The triathlon was on Friday at school on one nice summers day. “What a beautiful day for the triathlon.” “Hurry up Year 3 & 4,” Mrs Gardiner shouted out loud like an angry lion roaring through the jungle. Once we were all there with Mrs Gardiner she led us to the school court which was overgrown. We waited for a little while. Suddenly a voice shouted, “can we please have Year 3 & 4 to the library court area.” Once we were there Mrs Stevenson told us can I please have year 3 boys and girls to the pool. Splash, the year 3 girls dove like penguins into the high crystal clear water. 15 minutes later it was Year 4 boys. We got to the crystal clear blue pool and I looked down. “3...2...1 go,” Mrs H yelled to our ears. Splash! I dove into the freezing water. I shivered like crazy but I knew I had to keep going. Once I got to the end of the pool the water brang me up onto the top of the pool. After I had done 2 lengths of the freezing evil pool I ran like a cheetah to find my precious helmet amoung the other helmets. Once I did I ran to grab a bike. I started to bike and bike and bike. Finally I got to the old smelly street which was Mr Lawrence’s driveway. “Wow” I screamed as I zoomed down the bumpy rusty street. “Heave ho, heave ho,” I sighed as I pushed and pushed and pushed until I finally reached the end of the rusty street and onto the lush green field. “Yes yes yes!” I shouted out loud. I was on my way to the huge grey rock. I finally finished the bike. Next up was running the final thing to do. Run, run, run, run! I ran to the seat to drop my helmet off. Suddenly I started to run. I could hear voices cheering for me like I was day dreaming. But I knew I had to keep going. So I ran and ran and ran. Bang, crash, bang! I rolled down the bumpy hill like a flow of crystal clear water. Suddenly I got to a steep hill so I ran and ran with all my power and got to the top of the hill. I sprinted to the finish line and shouted, “I did it!” After the triathlon I felt proud, amazed and relieved. Once I came back from doing the triathlon I had a nice cool milk - perfect.
