The Big Race of Friends

Olivia, Mia, Lola, Bella, and Ivy were excited for the big race. They lined up at the starting line, ready to show off their running skills. The coach, Miss Mary, blew the whistle and the girls took off, their shoes pounding against the track.

Bella was in the lead, her ponytail bouncing with each stride. Olivia and Mia were close behind, neck and neck. Lola and Ivy were giving it their all, determined to catch up to the others. As they neared the finish line, Bella pulled ahead, crossing first with a big smile on her face.

After the girls' race, it was the boys' turn. Kyle, Nolan, Owen, Jeremiah, and Tommy got ready, full of energy and excitement. Mr. Hunter shouted "Ready, set, go!" and the boys sprinted down the track.

Tommy was in the lead, his legs moving fast. Nolan and Kyle were close behind, pushing each other to go faster. Owen and Jeremiah gave it their best effort, but Tommy crossed the finish line first, earning a victory for the boys.

The friends high-fived and congratulated each other on a race well run. They were all proud of their hard work and couldn't wait for the next big race.
