When I was a teenager I volunteered to work at the water station at a 10,000m race. My job was to     water to the runners, I remember being so         to see all the different kinds of people who passed by and grabbed a cup of water. Some ran past, some walked past and a few wheeled past. I saw so many types of people doing it. I thought maybe I could do it too! So the next year I       up for the race.

That first 10,000m race was quite an       . I jogged（慢跑）, I walked, I jogged and I walked.         , I didn’t know if I could finish. Then came a defining(起决定性作用的)         .

At one point near the end, a 70-year-old man ran past me, very, very fast, and I felt      because I was 15 years old, younger than him but I couldn’t even keep up with him. I felt         for a second.

But then I       something. He was running his race and I was running mine. He had       abilities, experience, training and goals for himself. I had mine. Remember my       was only to finish.

After a minute, it         me that this was a lesson I could draw from. I learned something about myself in that moment. I turned my embarrassment into        .

I       that I would not give up running races. In fact, I would run even more races and I would learn how to train and prepare         and one day I would be one of those 70-year-old persons who were still running. As I crossed the finish line, I was proud of my        .
