You left a black mark on my heart

It's been days since my 2.4km run for Physical Education and I can swear that it was probably the worse run I've ever had in these two years. I was taking my time ambling across the track, enjoying the wonderful sea breeze as I watched sweaty students run past me. I didn't think that I'd fail. Apparently, the timer in my teacher's hands begged to differ. I, who had never unintentionally failed a 2.4km run before, failed that run. I was feeling kind of disbelieving and confused after the teacher announced that I had failed. Well it really was kind of expected, now that I think of how I had taken my time. It was very ironic, as I fervently believe in the morale of the fable of the tortoise and the hare.

I have learned my lesson. Complacency really does kill. I will be sure to buck up and work harder to pass during the next run.
