The following text is for questions 1-3.I've got a painful experience that I went
through last semester. I joined the cross country,
We were running race competing against several
other schools. The entire race was long and dreadful
It took place in the desert so it was really hot
and humid. We ran up and down the hills.
It was getting awful after 10 minutes of the
race. People who ran in front of me made me
breathe the dust they created. It wasn't so bad
until my throat started to hurt. It was very pain-
ful. I had a hard time to catch my breath and I
sweat a lot. I really hated it.
In the end I managed to finish the race. I felt
really good after that. I felt fully alive again. That
race was horrible experience. That is the reason
why I quitted the team a week later.
