  1. 1.I entered the non-competitive race because I am not a competitive runner.

    2.It helped me get more fit and energetic.

    3.It was easy and hard because it was quite long plus it was hard going up hill and easy going down hill.

    4.I think the run was about 12-20 minutes.

    5.Yes because it is a chance for everyone to get together and support each other ether they were fast or slow.

  2. 1=I entered the competitive 10 year old girls because I wanted to try something new by experiencing the competitive way.

    2=It helped me by the practices we had for cross-country.

    3=It was easy because I only jogged through the whole cross-country and I had alot of energy but I came 6th but it was worth the try.

    4=I think the run was pretty long and my time was 21.46.

    5=I think cross-country is important because running is important which has something to do with cross-country.

    2. It helped me get a bit fitter and help me run faster.

    3. It was hard because of the hill.

  5. 1.I entered non-competitive because I didn't feel confident doing competitive and it might be harder.
    2.It did help me a little bit because I am improving at running day by day and week by week.
    3.It was okay,but it was quite hard because it was a hot sunny day.The hill which I call the the torture of terror still remains a challenge when you run up it.
    4.I think I ran about 19.30 minutes but its just a guess.
