Hawera tryathlon




As I swam the 100 meters I began to switch the strokes and got tired at the same time. I could hear everyone cheering me on as I got out of the pool. As I ran to hop on my bike I opened my sports pack and shoved some jaffas in my mouth as I put my helmet on, then I was off on my bike. When I was riding my bike I past about 20 people and I accidentally cut a person off. After my long bike ride I was onto the run. When I was running I forgot to take my helmet and shoes off so I gave them to a lady I knew. I kept on running and trying to run but I kept on slowing down and walkand then I kept on picking up my speed and then walking again. I got to the flags where the finish line was and I sprinted to the end but someone was behind me and past me before I hit the end. Phil was standing at the end and gave us a medal. I really liked the tryathlon becuase it makes me fit and to have fun doing exercise.

As I jumped in the pool I froze. The buzzer went and I started swim. I finished half the swim and I got tired. I could hear mum yelling go Sam and you can do it. I powered off the wall and swam to the end. I jumped out and ran to my bike. I put my helmet on and jumped on my bike. I biked all the way, but I went fast slow fast slow. I took off my helmet and started running, mum ran with me it was good to have her with me. I ran up the finish line so mum could put my medal around my neck. I was very proud of myself. I love doing tyathlons but sometimes my anckle pulls me back.
