Dear kumar,
The reason why I haven’t written to you
for so long is that I was busy preparing for School Sport day Which was held on 23rd
of this month. Our team came up to the finals of the 4x400 m relay and Were
practising. the great day dawned and I was quite nervous. So were my teammates. I, being the captain, had to hide
my fears and allay theirs. Only the finals of the various events were held on
this day. The meet began at 8 a.m. sharp with the march past and salute to the
school flag. The individual events were very exciting and many of my friends
won. When our turn came I sent up a silent prayer, flexed my muscles and got
ready to go.
I
was the runner of the final lap. Our second lap runner, Girish, dropped the
baton and los a few precious seconds. But I put my everything into the final
lap of the race and, believe it or not, we won!
What
a day! The prize distribution in the evening was like music to my ears. I will
give you more details later.
Season’s
greetings to all at home.
Your
loving friend,
PQR
