Hello everyone.
I would like to tell you about my mountain bike race at Awaba.
On Saturday I woke up at 6am and went to change into my riding gear. We hopped into the car and it took us 45 minutes to arrive at Awaba Mountain Bike Park where the race was going to happen. Once we got there, I went to get my race plate after doing a few warmup laps of the jump track there. There was a total of 61 boys and 33 girls in my age category (U11). I felt a bit scared and nervous when I reached the starting point, but was very excited once the race actually began. Everyone was zooming by, but I tried my best and rode as fast as I could. We all got very muddy and sweaty because we were pushing ourselves to the limit! When I finished the race I felt very, very accomplished and HUNGRY! I placed 50th and although I may not have come first, I beat my timing from last year!
The only thing missing was having school mates represent St Kevin’s with me. Maybe you could join me and my sister in training Wednesdays at Glenrock, where my mum coaches also!! That would be so cool!
