HCI Cross Country Meet

The Cross Country Meet is finally over and I ran 3km. It was a long and arduous run. I started from the last and came up not in the top 50 but I was still quite in front at the end of the jog. I saw some people dash and stop, dash and stop, repeating the process. I thought to myself, aren't they wasting their energy. They should maintain a speed and jog through out the whole course, not running and then walk. It was really fun to overtake people.(especially people you know!) There is a part of the road at the roadside which was quite boring. There are lots of trees over there.Therefore, it seems to take eternity to finish that part of the jog as we keep seeing the same scenary again and again. There are also many slopes, it was quite a sight to see the other students walking up the slope, then dashing down the slope at full speed with the wind howling at their face. The poor upper secondary had to run 1km more than the lower secondary. However, their results were brilliant as they managed to complete their run at a very fast speed. Anyway, this runs was overall a jolly-good one as it trains us to have the olympic spirit( Never Give Up)as well as, not yto cheat of course! I hope to have this run next year, though we may not have this run again, due to the construction of the Tan Kah Kee MRT Station.
