Cross country

It was a blazing hot day as i work up feeling confidence for school cross country to run in the reac so i got out of bed a go really. but i don’t care was people tell me that i can't do it or cane 1th as i was thinking. I did it care what i come in the Cross country i’m Champions As we all got really for cross country we had team name and my team was Te Aurere As Mrs Brut was tell as if you are big it does meter if you come need plats as long you never give.

The other year groups were going one by one boys they girls we were now only left with year 7 and 8 boys and girls still waiting in the sunny, then the countdown started with the year 7 boys going first out of the seniors “CLAP!” the year 7’s raced off to the course with two laps to start with ,minuets later the year 7 girls went to the starting with.

They is was time to start the race for the year 7 girls really “CLAP!” with two block then they Raced to the first checkpoint they had to run two laps like the 7 year boys. And minutes later then it was the year 8 boys turn we all stood up walking in a line to the starting line. As we stopped I started feeling butterfly they it started to go quiet “CLAP!” the race was off with everyone around me and trying to beat everyone else.

We passed the four checkpoints and then we went onto the big field and it started getting harder because I tried my hardest to not stop in the sun where is was hot, as we passed checkpoints under the trees then I started to cool of.

Then I passed the last checkpoint and then on to lap 2 then it started getting more hard because my legs started to feel like jelly but I always remembered “Champions never give up” and it kept repeating in my head with supporters on the side yelling “Go Red!” in the background I also heard “Go John Lee!” and I looked off to the side and I saw my parents cheering me on, then I started run faster and I passed more people then I also heard “CLAP!” I looked off to the side once more and I saw the Year 8 girls running and that told me I had to keep running.

As soon as I made it to the Pt England Reserve once more time to finish it off,then I met up with my friends and we all jogged together until we got near the finish i started to sprinting  leaving my friends be behind and as soon as i passed the park I knew it was over but I also remembered “Champions never give up” then  I started giving it my hardest and at last second i just passed my friend by and inch, while huffing and puffing I knew it was over and i was proud of myself giving it my best in the Cross country as i was drink water.    

What is sleep

This Explanation is going to outline the process of sleep . The process of sleep is a cycle where our bodies and our minds recover. Our bodies require sleep everyday so we can function to the best of our ability.

Sleep is something that allows your whole body to rest, heal and regenerate, the brain also organises the good information and throw the bad information in the bin and will never need to be needed in our live.

We have been sleeping for 24 years by putting different people to sleep ,six or eight hours or even longer. The person who slept 8 hours will have a good day of memorising and learning new things, yet the person who slept 6 hours will have a similar reaction to a drunk person.

Then the 4 hours sleepers had to suffer of sleeping during their maths test or sleeping during their work shift, normally we should sleep up to 7-8 hours or over, if we sleep under 7-8 hours we have a high risk of heart disease,obesity and diabetes which a 12% high risk of death.

If you know that their are different types of sleep, deep sleep and light sleep, when you start to sleep you first start sleeping in a deep sleep, (deep sleep is when you can’t be waken and you can’t see or hear anything) then it goes to a light sleep where you start dreaming, then you go back into a deep sleep, it process repeats every time you sleep.

Explanation: How Our Muscles Work

This is explanation is going to tell how muscles in the  body work.

The smooth muscles are mostly the respiratory system and the digestive system when you eat something the smooth muscles push the food down as it’s being digested. And the muscles push the food out when you are going to vomit and other reasons is that the smooth muscles also help us in other ways like when we want to pee the smooth muscles help hold it inside.

Now the cardiac muscles or in other ways they are called involuntary which means they work when you’re not even trying, one of the cardiac muscles is the heart which pumps blood through the rest of our body, which means you don’t have to tell it what to do it just does it by itself.

The skeletal muscles or they are also called voluntary which means you have to move them yourself and it doesn't work by themselves, they’re controlled by different parts of the brain like the cerebral motor cortex and the cerebellum, the brain which sends an electrical signal down the spin and on to where it moves which causes them to contract, and the message is sent back to the brain which is smooth.

Olympic

The Olympic Games are a competition where top athletes compete for their country or nation.Only the top athletes from countries around the world qualify to represent their country. This explanation is going to explain how the Olympics came to be and how they changed over time.

In 776 BC (before Christ) that had only introduced sports that was music, singing and poetry and it was all about perfecting excellence, for the first thirteen years of the Olympic games starting, they only had just featured one sporting event that was the 200 yard dash.

In the town called Olympia where the Olympics we're called Olympiads and they never did what they did now for the Olympics, during the Olympics they would have to sacrifice an ox (a cow) just to honour the great Greek god Zeus which he appeared in the Greek mythology.

But over time the Greeks have been introducing new sports in the Olympics like boxing, chariot and mule racing, and a foot race where the competitors wore a full suit of armour, so they combined running, jumping, wrestling, javelin throwing and throwing the discus which in the Olympian days they called pentathlon and they inspired world class competition and in 391 ad Theodosius banned the Olympic games.
