The bus was rolling down the road.  At the same time I was afraid of losing and making a fool of my self in front of over 500 people.  This was the Championship Track Event.  The second the bus arrived , I had butterflies in my stomach . All I saw while I was looking around wad the announcers, events, and other people.  The track was filled with things to do.  I felt a little more brave in my self. All that brave went away when I saw the hurdles.  ”That was the one thing I forgot” I screamed!  The worst thing was, I was first!  I just stood up there and waited for the gun to go off.  I was actually winning when I started to stride and jump it was kind of like a pattern.  Doing the hurdles was really exciting.  At the end I actually came in third place.  It was still fun to even try to compete.  When I looked up my parents were waving and cheering.  That was something I didn’t know I good at.  Next year I’ll try extra hard to come I first.
