3rd in the 'Watch Out! 2000' competition

Blow the whistle,
Fire the gun,
All around
The track we run.

Got to run faster,
Overtake,
Going to beat them,
Win first place.

Cross the line,
Win the gold,
Stand up straight,
Proud and bold.

Bow my head,
Receive my medal,
How I feel inside
Is special.

I ran the race,
Felt the fire,
Now I’ve achieved what I aspired.
