Triathlon day was awesome. It was so fun and challenging! I had a team with three friends including me, Krishna, and Ben. It was on Monday the 16th of March I was ready. It wasn't a normal Tri like the Weetbix one because it has a shorter distance and it goes run, bike, swim. I did the run Krishna did the bike and Ben did the swim so I was up first.
On your marks, get set... GO! I ran at a decent speed really loving it, but then it kind of got serious and I was just coming first by a quarter of a meter I had to do 800 meters of running. I did two laps about half of a really big field near an indoor pool. The pool was called Enterprise Pools and that's where Ben was going to do the swim. For the first half of the first run I was in front but the next thing I knew was Bay was in front of me. I slowed down a wee bit then I think that encouraged him to go faster on our second lap this boy named Mako was coming third and he was the individual same with Bay but Mako. Anyway, I didn't need to worry about Mako yet. when we were close to finishing our lap, Bay ran REALLY fast and I would've but the time he was at the finish line I was looking back to feel sorry for Finn because he was like 20 meters away to the second to the last person jogging.
When I ran at the finish line I tagged our biker Krishna and he biked off one lap of the whole field while Bay was coming 1st. He was coming to the same place as me in running. Bay is also pretty fast at biking and I was surprised he wasn't tired and coming 1st. Krishna was doing well but not as good as Bay. When my teammate hopped off the bike he whizzed off to Ben and tagged him. Ben ran as fast as he could then he dived in the pool I was waiting out the finish line and I wasn't allowed to see how he was going so that was annoying. Somehow I saw Mako and Bay come out before Ben. Mako was just behind Bay when they passed the finish line. After about two other people Ben was out he was running as fast as he could then he whipped through the finish line our team came 5th at least it is in the top five. I can't believe bay one and he is individual that must've been hard. The reason why I thought I should do a team is that I haven't been in a team before and I just want to experience it next time I want to do individual I don't know why it's easier then team. Anyway when we packed and ready to go home dad was a little naughty and brang me, Ben, and, my brother to a Bakery and we had a treat!
