The Big Race

The Big Race


The 3200-meter runner started preparing for the “Big Race”
He stretched in his lane getting ready both phsycially and psychologically 
He apprehensively took a stance, waiting for the starting gun
As the Ref said the words, “Ready, Set, Go.”
The gun explosively went off and so did the race
The Runners sped around the first curve like there was no tomorrow 
He worked his way up and through the front of the pack
He accelerated, overtaking the pack, and stayed ahead
With only one lap left, he sprinted his hardest
He crossed the Finishline and WON that shiny
	Gold Medal he had worked so hard for . . . . . . .
