100 Meter Dash

Your heart starts beating rapidly while needles of nervousness start pinning you. Everyone sitting on the school bleachers are gazing at you. The gun man explains the directions to the dash as you fantasize of winning the race. Your opponents questionably stare at you thinking who’s going to win. Then you glance at the most muscular girl out of all eight of the opponents. She looks very nervous ,but at the same time she looks very focused on the track, and to stay in her lane.

Everyone gets in their position to start the race, while you realize the gun man is getting on his pedestal. You absolutely know that the race is about to begin. Thus, you get in your last minute position and you hear the gun man say, “Five, four, three, two, BANG!” There goes the starter gun. Before you know it, you sprint ahead of all your opponents even the most well-built girl. Then out of the corner of your eye you see her sprinting as hard as she can and is slowly catching up to you . However, Coach Hansen, your track coach appears in your conscience telling you that you shouldn’t be looking for anyone who is catching up to you. Your conscience is also telling you to just RUN!

Now you are only 2 meters away from the finish line. You notice that there is a ribbon that you are supposed to run thru in order to win the race. Your still in front of everybody. Faintly you hear your teammate screeching your name and this makes you go even more faster. Early enough, you have broke the ribbon in two and you are gleaming with glory as you slow down to catch your breath. Your teammates dash to you and congratulate you for winning the biggest race of the state track meet. Suddenly you see your parents pacing to you with a bouquet of red roses. You receive the flowers hug your parents, and thank everyone who congratulated you.

You realize that your very thirsty and run to the bleachers and take a sip of your Berry Propel water. Then you hear the announcer announce your name, place and time of the 100 meter dash. Your teammates scream for you again and again. You realize that your time was amazing and the announcer calls you to the award table. You accept the largest trophy on the table and once again your teammates cheer for you. You realize that your practice sprints at home have paid off. After the state track meet, your parents drive you home and you slowly fall asleep waiting to reach home from Madison, Wisconsin. As you fall asleep you dream about the 100 meter dash you just won and how good you felt about yourself.
