Tyrone's Liu Xiang story


In the 2004 olympics I won the 110m hurdles. In the 2008 olympics I competed again but I lost because I went in to a obstacle my country thought I will win but I lost. In the 2012 London olympics my country counted on me so I competed again my whole country was watching.


Then we all started running then I jumped and hit my leg. I felt embarrassed and the person at the back of me stopped and I was disappointed then everyone else fell over. I got up then hopped away into a tunnel then some people said I was going the wrong way I said I am retired, then he went to the last hurdle and kissed it.


After I kissed it some people from a different team came to help me. That was the olympic spirit my leg was sore that I couldn't walk on it any more.

Cross Country 2012


Jogging down to the reserve we all walked to the starting line at the reserve. The 10 and 9 year old boys were ready to sprint all the way to tamaki college and all the way back to Pt -England. As Mr Burt said on your marks get set GO as I ran towards the bridge I was hoping I would came first in the finals. If I did come first I will be proud of myself but I didn't and I felt disappointed about my self.


As I was running through the bushes I was going to fall down. On slippery bridge and into the water. Well I was running down the bush it felt really exhausted. I was almost at the finished line and I felt so tired!!! Finally I crossed the finished line and everyone was cheering me on.


We were washing our legs because our legs were dirty because of the mud. Looking at all that water made me so thirsty. When I was done wishing the mud off my legs I quickly had the biggest drink of water ever.Then we sat down on the ground and watch every one that had to race and after that we went to room 17 because Miss King was still doing the cross country then she came and the we went home.

Tyrone's Cross Country Training


Every afternoon at 2 : 30 p.m we go to the courts to do cross country. As we get up to run I feel fitter and fitter When mr Marks yells out  year five boys year five boys run all the way down to the reserve.



As I run i'm hating every minute and I start thinking how much longer. By the time I got to mr Sommerville I was wishing for rain. He told everyone that they were doing a good job.
Not long after that I started walking.

When everyone started passing me I started running I got up to my teacher mrs King she tells us to hurry up. I didn’t want to upset my teacher so I started running a little faster.



I was almost there but I got tired so I started walking with my friend Frank. We started talking then we started jogging we got to the end. We all had to walk in a giant square after that we done stretches when we finished it was time to get our bags and go home.
