My father was a tennis player and my sister is a high jumper at school. But I'm not interested in sports. At the beginning of this term,my PE teacher suggested that I should take part in the women's marathon(马拉松比赛).
I was very surprised because I was never a good runner. In order to encourage me,he said if I took part in the race,I would get the highest mark for the term's PE class. So I decided to have a try. I prepared for the race very hard. I ran every day and had the special diet(膳食)in the morning before school.
When the day of the marathon arrived,I was very nervous. All my family wished me good luck. They knew how hard I practiced. I was worried that I would be last. However,when I started to run,I thought only about the race. I did not remember when I passed the other runners. Suddenly I realized that I had come first. I was very happy when I won the race. From this,I learned that success always comes out of hard work.
