6 Laps!!!

Had to run the 6 laps around the oval today! It was actually better than the Langara run because I know what the oval looks like and when the finishing point is so it was much easier to pace myself. I thought that we were having our field hockey written test today but turns out it was postponed till next week because we had a substitute last time and was unable to do the 6 laps. I'm actually pretty glad that the written test was postponed because I completely forgot to study for it! I was cramming last night. :) The 6 laps turned out to be easier than I expected! That was quite surprising. During the middle of the run around the 4th to 5th lap, I started to slow down by quite. That's when my two friends in the first group that ran started yelling that there was a bee chasing me. As you know, I have a HUGE fear of bees. I'm also quite easy to fool so I started running faster. A lot faster. Half a lap later I finally realized that I was tricked and I was exhausted by that time. I kept running and running. I was amazed that I didn't collapse yet! Near the end of the 6th lap, I was so tired that I didn't feel like running the rest of the way. Then my friends started yelling that there was a bee behind me again. I started running believing there was a enormous bee chasing me. I didn't run as fast as the first because I was so tired though. I have to thank my friends though. Thanks to them I just passed the running part with 15:32 as my time. My legs kinda hurt for the rest of the day. Ow.
