final x-country run

started the day off early.. for me its too early.. 6:00am.. then i had to make lunch.. and get ready. supposedly i was going to walk to school.. but seriously... it was PITCH dark out there.. [i'm STILL afraid of the dark xP] so i made dad give me a drive. at school, i was suppose to meet sally there so we can go together to hand in our lab reports that were due that day.. within 5 minutes. i fell asleep at my locker.. but woke up moments later. so we delivered our papers...
right when we got back, it was already time to load the bus!! * nervous nervous* the bus was so colddd.. i curled up into a ball.. as i always do when i'm cold.. for the whole ride nearly.. my legs fell asleep *oh joy* i hate that feeling. uhg. we arrived at victoria park collegiate to pick people up. so poor, we have to share buses. -_- but yea. we showed up at etobicoke olympium [spelt wrong...] i hate that place.. ski lift hill.. *whinee* its so steep!
but we fortunately didn't have to run yet, so we put our tent up. sshelter =) it was quite cozy when everyone got in.. sally brought mini crisps! yummsies.. =))) then.. at 11:30am it was our turn to racee. ><
it was so colddd.. and i hated and sucked if i started in a back row. and i did. -_- lucky mee.. it took me a while to get back further front, but never really made it.. and not like i would/can push my way forward. it sucked.. i couldn’t run properly.. then, lucky mee it started to rain.. it was freezing! rain+wind+cold+shorts not exactly the greatest combo.. and i guess i did pretty well until i came to the hill.. it was so steep, i wasted so much energy going half way up the hill, but really, running it, really didn’t bring me up any faster, but just used more energy… that’s prob where i went wrong… so i went on, and on.. first my cramps.. then my collar bone area hurt.. the muscles there… maybe it was because i got rammed over by this gr.12 the other day.. hitting my there.. hm…so a the end, the last .. 4oo m (???) I caught up around 7-9 people. =DDD happy happy happy.. then my coach was like.. give it you awesome end crystal!! Hm.. it hurt.. but it would mean catching up 2 more people.. so I did. it hurt so much.. *ouchiesss* but.. that brought me a place of 79.. definitely not one of my high scores.. but i guess its ok.. sally came in 93? or.. 90 someeething..
then we curled back into our tent and watched the others play cheat. Then we got changed and.. sleep session! *sigh xDDD* curled up in those.. camp..folding chairs.. we fell asleep for a bit.. quite a long bit. =) then we got up and got pizzaaa and hot chocolateee.. =))) yummmsies&& warmmm. then.. back to the tent to.. hide from the evil and unwelcoming weather outside. and there we stayed.. most of the day.. then, at… 5 (???) we packed our tents up and waited for the bus, that never really came… so we played catch, and… tackle catch.. it was so funn.. =DDD never hold the ball for long… is what i learned.. xP then.. at around 6:15, the bussy finally came.. and we got back to our dear school at around… 6:45… WALKED home.. it was so dark outside! I was so scared… and by the time I got home.. it was 7…
that was how my last x-country meet went.. =)
