Dear diary I have athletics next week but … I have to vs the fastest people in championships trials  I hope that i come first to beat their record and I will be famous …… wish me luck diary!!!

As I walk to the courts to practise my sprints alone  I see someone running as fast as they can practising around the field I knew it , it was usain bolt he's the world's best runner and i'm competing with him in the championships I  thought to myself as he sprints  past me knocking of my socks  how am I gonna beat him ?? I start sprinting to show off but he was still faster … I started walking back home thinking that I should just drop out of champs.

I hear someone's footsteps outside of my window I jump out to see who it was … I move the curtain slightly aside and a picture  of usain bolt beating me in the sprints popped up and that's what I see at everything I look at it brings me down but I won't let it.

I go out to the courts again to practise I see usain bolt but I  threw my chin up and started working out and I new that if I can dream anything I have to make it instead of thinking I ran up and down the courts as fast as I could .

Dear diary tomorrow is the big day and I need to beat usain bolt because that's my dream I hope that my dream comes true wish be the best luck in the whole entire world.

HHHHHH deep breaths mum said. In my head “ I Can do it” just pops up non stop I eat my healthy breakfast nervously I cross my fingers and toes ready to rock that field mum calls out let's go you're gonna be late I meandered to the car so I don't lose my energy.

OOOOOH here we go after I  do all of my other sport and I look over to the sprints course my chills just creep up my spine  slowly with a nervous look on my face they call out our names and tell us to each be in a lane  they get us prepared and they call out…….

ON YOUR MARK GET SET GOOOOO”

I run as fast as I can pumping my small arms up and down I just had to look back and I  see usain bolt catching up but I sprint as hard as ever like there was a big giant chocolate bar that is 1 m tall at the finish line. I kept on going as hard as ever and made it to the finish line I can't believe my dream came true I just realized that if you wanna do something you have to make it instead of giving up.

I felt proud getting that gold medal.
