On Thursday the 30th of March we had a Duatholon. A Duatholon is like Cross Country but with a little bit less running. We had a chance to bring our bikes and scooters and I bring my purple MGP scooter. For our Duatholon we had to run from our school rugby post to the high school gates to pick up our wheels. We had to zigzag the high school court twice then drop our wheels and run around our school field twice.
The first group to run was the year 5 boys then it was my groups turn (were the year 5 girls). I was sprinting at the start to get to my scooter but some people were beating me through the gates. I ran over the grass to start riding my scooter but some other bikers were beating me to the court.
We zigzagged down the court. Up, down, up, down over and over again. It was a while until I got to the running part again but I never gave up. Going up and down the court toke me forever but I started to pass others like Mikayla and Jessica and Bailey.
Finally I got up to the field. I got really tired but I started to jog a little bit faster. As I got into the 2nd lap I started to sprint and run for the finish and as I thought I came 3rd some people ran in front of me but I still tried my best. Instead of being 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th you just have to deal with what place you get.
Even though I didn't come first second or third I was still happy with my place.
