Comments:
After lying around all day on the bus and comfy "wooden pallet", I got up and started to warm up with Aunt Han. We felt a little sluggish from our previous naps, but that was all fixed after our traditional "Shake" routine to loosen us up. I lined up behind Kathryn and looked to my left (and up of course) to see the anchor from another team smirk and then laugh at me... not sure if it was a friendly laugh or just that she couldn't take me seriously, but either way it made me want to beat her because I could tell she did not see my leg of our team as a threat. Little did she know I was the biggest baby of my whole team! I got my chance to surprise her when I received the baton, but I honestly didn't think I would catch her. All I remember is the purple girl ahead of me booking it out of the start and me questioning whether or not I knew how to pace the race. Since the only girl close to me had sprinted ahead I just decided to pick up ground each lap and see if I could eventually catch the top four runners. I'm not sure how, but I eventually caught them, excited that my ankle and back hadn't bothered me much at all. We got some nice medals (I like them better without the ribbon) If only we found some floss. But at the end of the day, hai-ho hai-ho get outa that tree it wasn't me.
