I stepped onto the diving board and froze. My hart was pumping like never before.The pool was as blue as the sky but with sprinkle of glitter. My head was shaking like there was a earthquake. on your marks I took my last breath buzzzzzzzzz we dived in the pool like a dolphin fixed emotions filled my body.

My eyes were burning from the cloring finns feet were in my face. I was swimming my hardest stroke by stroke breath by breath I could see the end. I was gliding throw the water I was two meters away finn finished then i finished 

Even know I came second it was a good race. I got out of the pool and got told my time it was 24 seconds.
