I was excited watching the race...When she racing she had to save her energy and then she went a little faster into second place, and then she went faster then ever and she got to first place and she is gonna make it but then someone else is almost gonna be in first place as well and then she made it into first place and she did, And when she made it she still had to keep going I think and she in first place again and she finished.
She was so happy and excited that she made it in first place.
