What?

On Tuesday and Wednesday we had athletics at school.

 My favorite event was high jump because it was fun even though I got out on my first  and second jump.
Something I am proud of is sprints because I was the only person from  5GF
A challenge I faced was running in the house relay because it felt like my legs would FALL OFF!

And I started smelling.
