A magical sporting moment (Núria Piñol)

The last year, I participated in a swimming competition. I had to compete against four girls. At first, I felt very nervous. If I could swim the length of two swimming pools quickly, I would win the cup.

In the first seconds, I swam very fast and I went the first, but after a moment I felt tired and two girls passed me. I was disappointed because I wanted to win.

Then, I looked at the face of the audience and I saw my family. They gave me courage to continue. Soon, I felt better and I started to swim very fast again. In few moments, I gain the girls.

Afterwards, I finished first. The audience screamed my name, the cup was already mine. Finally, I won with my willpower.
