pm- did the usual pre race run, which was sandburgs but 4 miles. I should not have ran. I truly was kinda fine but most of the time i was hurting. this run was also the most scaryest day of my life. so we were all swimmin in the pond and all when all the andrew lets out this screech and dissapears under water. so mathew my new hero runs and dives into the pond, clothes and all. so him and andrew are under there when all the sudden jake goes under to. then paul. then me. ALL THE FRESHMEN!!! under the water this tentacle thing was choking me when all the sudden matt rips it away from around my neck and i floated up to the top of the water. when i got up all the freshmen were ashore so i swam over there fast. we waited, and waited, and waited. but no sign of matthew. then all the sudden he bursts out of the water gasping for breath giving this giant octopus thing the choke hold. the octopus suddenly screeched and swam away to the depths of the pond. matthew swam to shore and we all cheered for him. then got our shoes on and ran away. this was so scary but rad too. now i know why matt never gets in when we go to sandburgs. |
