First Track Meet

This saturday, my team will be in its first track meet of the season. I can't wait to race on a track for a change because was beginning to get on my nerves. All we do is practice, all the time and I'm getting tired of it because I want to see what I can do in a race. Everybody on the team is real anxious and can't wait until this weekend especially me. My 4x4oo relay team is real hype to try and win this race. We have been practicing hard even though we don't know yet who will be our 2nd leg. Anybody could step up and fill the role. We have a lot of people who are showing a lot of potential to be great runners for our relay; however, I'm not even sure I'm ready to be in a relay team because I don't know if I can trust my other team members to truly come through and stay ahead so we will have a chance to win. I'm going to run in the relay the first couple meets; however, if they don't come through and show they can be trusted my friend and I aren't going to be on any of the relay teams, and we are the strongest and fastest boys on the team. We, especially me, might have to just go individual until the other members of the relay show they are capable of pulling their weight on the team. In fact everybody needs to show that they are able to pull their weight, even me. This is why I am so anxious for this first meet.
