Nick became curious about Keri and found out heaps of information about her. He found out that Keri was a good runner because she trained so hard going for a run every night after school across the farm paddocks. Sprinting  then jogging sometimes up hills sometimes down slope. She run at the inter-school last year and it was running that she was best at. On the day of Athletic day Keri sat down and started stretching  before the event. The first two heats were a bit of a joke most of them didn't even try to win.Some even walked. When it was Keri's turn ,Nick watched nervously. Keri got second  and after eating lunch Keri looked depressed because she was probably not used to being not the winner. When the event started again,  Nick  was cheering up wanting her to win. This time Keri  won.  and something strange happened when the girl who won second and Keri gave each other a hug . They wre laughing  as if they were the best of friends.
