Athletics Day

When I was 8 years old, our school had an Athletics Day. We all competed in lots of events, like High Jump, Long Jump, Vortex, Shot Put, Discus and Sprints.
After Mr K told St Joseph, St Francis, St Anne, and St Anthony to walk around the big field, We did high jump.  High jump is when you jump over a white pole onto a blue mat it sounded like a slap when you land on the mat. People were cheering for James, Jackson and River the best high jump people.
Next, we ran to Mr Emms for the sprint races, we had to start at 50 meters. I came 3rd place but I was still proud of myself running down the field in your you run in your own lane. I felt  nerves
Finally, We ran to vortex, Mrs Redman put us in order it went like Josh, James and River. Josh threw it to the 5th one ,then James threw it to the 4th one, then it was my turn I threw it to  the 6th one, and I came 1st , Josh came 2nd and James came 3rd I felt nervous but it was fun throwing the vortex.
It was a fun day, but I was very tired when I got home from school that afternoon.
