On the 10th of June was County Sports in the Clickamin which is a sports centre in Lerwick, the whole of the P7s in Shetland were going. Me and mum had to get to  Ulsta ferry terminal and where we got on the bus with all the other P7s from Cullivoe and Mid Yell, they would all be in my secondary class when I go to Mid Yell after the summer. Anyway we got on the bus, I sat at the back next to Ashley; we got on the ferry we went upstairs and got changed. We arrived at Toft 20 minutes after, I got told that I will be competing in 3 activities; 100m sprint, 200m sprint and long jump.  We arrived at the Clickamin and it was raining heavily, First up was the 800m sprint, which was 2 laps around the running track. The P7s who were running cheered for the people who were running, Afterwards was the 100m, which was only a quarter of the race track, I came second unfortunately my time was too slow so I didn’t get in to the finale. Next was the sack race I went with the P7s who weren’t in the sack race and cheered them on. Then we split up the boys went to high jump and Me, Lizzie and Christina stayed any did the long jump. I got 1.9 m, We went inside as it started to rain, we all had sand in our shoes because when we jumped in the sand when doing the long jump. We went inside and watched the boys and girls doing the high jump, Lizzie won bronze medal in the high jump. Afterwards it was the 200 metres, it was raining soooo heavily we went in a tent thing to keep dry but ending coming out and cheering the boys on, next was the girls, I sprinted as fast as I could and came second, this time I was quick enough to get into the finals, I came 4th but I nearly came 3rd but it was too close to call. I ended being 4th, I was shattered I gave everything. We had to make a sharp exit to catch the ferry back to Yell, Everyone was soaking but it was still a brilliant time! 🙂
