The Swimming Sports

I woke up feeling very nervous. I remembered today was the swimming sports. First the girls went, then the boys went. It was my turn and they called my age group. I went to the start. I was off. I was coming first place by miles. I felt great, I then saw a kid behind me so I sped up. Then I finished. I got out of the pool and got an orange paddle and that meant I went into a swimming final. But I just remembered that I was in the championship race and my friend told me that I had my championship race. So I was racing my friend, Sam. He won the cup. I came fourth place. I. did not get in the top three. Then I went home with my friend Liam and then I went with my mum back to my home. When I got home I was exhausted.

    Wow, that was an awesome recount, you must have worked really hard on it. I'm so proud of you.
    I like the way that your writing style puts people who are reading it in the picture, for example, by describing what the orange paddle meant.
    Have a fabulous day.
    Love from Mum
