The Annual Athletics Meet

We had our annual Athletics Meet on the 14th and the 15th December. It was held at Wan Chai Sports Ground. I joined the 100 metre and the 200 metre running races.

The heat of 200 metre running race was held in the morning at about 10:25. I did some warm up exercise before the competition. Of course, I didn't enter the semi-final race because I ran very slowly! Luckily, I was not the only competitors came last . When the judge said" Ready, Set, Go!" All the athletics ran very fast but I ran quite slowly and I nearly came last! I think I was too nervous! Poor me!

The 100 metre running race was held in the afternoon so I didn't eat too much at lunchtime. The result of the 100 metre running race was similar to the 200 metre running race. I was the last one over the line and I wasn't happy about that. The competitors ran like rockets and you know one of the competitors broke the old record and his house was awarded for giving an extra three marks!!

On the last day of the Sports Day, I didn't join in any event and I just helped the captain of Morrison House to sell their products to the spectators. Their products were arm bands and they were quite ugly, I thought. While the other members of Morrison House were cheering for their athletics, I sold products to the spectaors but some of them were not willing to buy them. They thought they were too expensive! However, I did sell 15 of them and earned one hundred and fifty dollars.

My house didn't win and I was quite disapointed. In addition, I got a bad result for my own performance so I felt more upset! But I hope I can win a prize for the house in the future to make a contribution for my house! and I hope we can be the champions house next year!!
