    The track season was the hardest most adrenaline filled thing i’ve ever partook in. Everyday at practice we’d run probably two miles total, and that was just the sprinters. The long distance probably ran four or five. Track meets were always very intense, you could feel the electricity in the air. There was a dash of suspense also, it’s suspenseful because you can only do four events, and track meets were about six to seven hours long, and one sprint event only takes like literally a minute.

    Frozen in fear, I stared at the deadly serpent for a moment. As it slithered into pouncing position, I rapidly spun myself 180 degrees and sprinted toward safety. Running faster than I ever had before, I swiftly cut in and out of trees until I found my way back to the trail and saw my dad. My brother and sister, unaware of the snake, asked why I sprinted back to the path. Breathing heavily and secreting loads of…

    hayduke hess When jenny pointed out the trees we knew there must be water. So we started running as fast as we possibly could in the heat to get there but every step brought excruciating pain to our feet. The ground was flaming hot it burned my feet so bad. When we got there to the trees the ground felt so good and cold in the shade. I saw three big white blobs in the middle of the forest but as soon as we got to them I noticed they were camping trailers with red stripes and…

    Boom! The bullet shot through the air. My legs automatically bolted forward to the sound. It was the start of the 800 meter run, my favorite. While I was running I looked behind to see Lily, my best friend, a few feet behind me. She was a exceptional runner, just not a great sprinter. The second I turned back around, I heard a laugh and a fall to the ground. It sounded as if boxer threw his opponent against the ring. I spun around just in time to find Sarah sprinting past Lily, who was…

    “What’s this?” I gander at the intricate indentations of the tinfoil-wrapped cylinder.

All the inventions made me question my capabilities of constructing a beautiful masterpiece, so I begged my dad if we can build something. My dad agreed and took me to a store. When we arrived, I ran into the store and started searching for something I can get. Finally, I hit my jackpot…

    force them back. We both mouth to each other at the same time. ‘I’m sorry’ I turn and ran to the door and quickly unlock it before running out of the house. I hear running behind me and force myself to go faster. After running for a little bit I duck into an alley and pull out my stele and drew a Heightened Speed rune on the inside of my arm before I took off running again. I ran all the way from my neighborhood to the New York Institute. When I got in front of the Institute I didn’t…
