What I Am Proud Of

I am proud of my awesome athletic skills. I love playing soccer and have played since I was very young. When I was 3, I played on my first team. At that time I did not even know the point of the game or what a goal was, so I had tons of fun doing cartwheels across the field at every practice. Since then, fortunately, I have learned how to play soccer. I love the running and teamwork parts of soccer. I have now been playing soccer for over half my life on the local teams. I have also gone to soccer camps almost every summer since I started playing soccer. I am currently on the Islanders rec team .

Gymnastics used to be a huge part of my life and I am proud of how much time and effort I put into it.I did gymnastics at Cascade Elite Gymnastics School for 3 1/2 years. Every week our gymnastics team practiced 3 days a week for 3 hours at a time. One of the 3 days we had an extra hour for gymnastics dance practice. I made a decision to stop gymnastics because the amount of time the gymnastics school was asking was to much. I wanted time to do other things. I enjoy the other things that I have time to do now but I miss gymnastics.

I am also proud of my running in track and field. Last year I placed 8th out of all the schools for the 7th grade girls 800 meter relay race. I ran the 100 meter dash and I got 6th place out of all the schools. I also got 8th place out of all the schools in the 400 meter dash. I am also proud of how well I did running the mile, which I did in less than 7 minutes, at school. I also ran the "graveyard run" (the run is over 2 miles long) in less than 16 minutes. I love sports and athletics and I am proud of it.
