When Serena was done brushing her teeth, she headed to her room and went to bed. The thought that haunted her most was the questions 'Will I do well tomorrow? Will I embarrass myself tomorrow? Will I ever win the gold?' Even though she drifted off into a restful sleep, these three questions still bothered her.

Serena woke up to another beautiful day as she always would. Today was the day of the championships. She enjoyed the fact that she would get whatever she wanted for breakfast instead of the usual pancakes or waffles. She decided that she would want to eat an egg, cheese, and ham sandwiches for breakfast. Another fact that she enjoyed was that her mother was going to make it for her instead of her making it by herself. She also knew that she would need a big miracle in order to win the gold, but do miracles always happen?
After all those thoughts that flooded her mind faded away, she sighed and then proceeded to walk down the stairs to devour the delicious sandwiches waiting for her downstairs. When she reached the kitchen, she quickly greeted her mother and swiftly took a seat. When her mother turned around to greet her, her mother was in shock because the sandwiches that was on the table has now disappeared into Serena's stomach. Sammy watched from the stairs at the shocked expression on his mother's face and laughed out loud.
Then Serena got up from her chair, walked up the stairs, and hissed at Sammy while she passed by him. He did nothing back as soon as he saw Serena's threatening face. When she got upstairs, she immediately went into the restroom, brushed her teeth, and left. Then she walked into her bedroom and changed into her track clothes. When she was done changing, she went down stairs and sat down. Since her championships did not start until an hour later, she decided to watch some TV.

The time is 9:00. The championships finally were about to begin. After one whole year of thoughts and dreams, Serena's questions were actually going to be answered in one day.
~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~: The Championships Begins :~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~
After half an hour of driving, Serena and her family finally made it on time for the championships. As soon as they arrived, Serena walked to the track and met up with the team. After a few minutes of discussion, the teams competing went into the meeting rooms. In the meeting room, the team reviewed what they discussed yesterday. When their time for discussion was up, the teams left the rooms and the crowd started to cheer for the championships were about to begin.
As soon as the teams left the rooms, they started stretching. After their moment of stretching, the competitors went towards the starting line. Then the announcer said, "Runners to the starting line." After waiting for the competitors to head to the starting line, he resumed and continued by saying, "Please get into your position and the race will soon begin." After that was said, the runners got into position. A few minutes after they got into position, the referee blew his whistle and the championships began.
After the announcer watched the runners turn the first curve, he announced, "It looks like we got Kathryn in the lead, followed by Kristine, Hiromi, Katrina, Serena, and Jamie. It also looks like the team known as the 'Speed Goddesses' will be taking home the trophy." After that information was said, Serena's mind started to have flashbacks to the other competitions. Each one was put together like a continuous movie. After a while, the announcer saw many changes in what he announced, but he was too shocked to speak at the moment. When he came back to his senses, he announced, "Now it looks like the team known as 'Storm Runners' are going to win because one of the runners has made a magnificent improvement."
