A Pair Of Shoes

"BANG" of went the gun and Trent was quick of the mark, he was round about 10th with a good pace going I knew he was going to try keep up with the top guys but he found it as a struggle. Down the hill my soul was hurting thumping on the ground and then straight into the uphill now this was his advantage!!! as he could run on his toes quick and fast and made a few positions up.

Coming up I could hear the crowd yelling as loud as they can the adrenaline kicked in suddenly Trent was going a lot quicker. Down around the bike shed this is where it started burning but luckily for me i was running on leaves so it was much softer but not as much grip. Now back on the field, where now half way just 1.5 more k's to go and i could hear the crowd roaring and cheering everyone on. I could just hear a little voice "go Trent".

Back down Fraser Street running as fast as Trent could he caught up to the group in front of him and then back up the hill!!!. He had good momentum and stuck to the low line and passed most of them there was someone just ahead of Trent as he tried to run the same pace as him. Coming onto the last few 100's metres he was sprinting and he was passing people onto the last straight there was a big gap behind him and crossed the finish line with relief we got 26th and i was truly proud of Trent.
