600
metres
One of the
new races was the 600 metres. It was only introduced last year, and we can see
why! There are two races, one for the boys and another for the girls. The track
is 200 metres, so you have to do three laps of the track. Each school entered
two people, they could be any age from yr3 to yr6. First up was the boys race
the boys, we entered in, Alex.W. and Jack. They started of very fast and we weren't
quite sure that they would keep this speed up. They unfortunately did not, but
they kept on going and tried their best, and made us proud! Jack came 8th and
Alex came 9th. The next race was the girls, Jazz and I were really nervous. We
had some good tactics. To let them set the pace and let them do all the hard
work. We started off on a good pace, and got up to the front. After a while the
group started to break away from the main group. Both me and Jazz were up in
front. Jazz in fourth and Katrina was in second. Suddenly that all changed as
Katrina overtook the leading girl to finish first place!
Jazz came in fourth, the race ended
quickly and we had take our results to the table. Then we went to sit back down
and have a rest!
