This year, I only joined the obstacle race, 4 by 50m relay and 4 by 100m relay. Despite my determination to join actively, I knew that my body was not yet ready to do more than those races. I felt the pain while running the races, but I still wanted to do my best. I felt more sorry to my other house leaders when I saw that they were running races that they don't want to do because there was no one who wanted to participate in that particular race. A lot of members and leaders of our house were injured and it was difficult for them to participate as well. When I saw that they cannot do it, I wanted to do it for them instead, but it was also hard for me to do it.
Since I cannot join in many races, I still did my best to do my responsibilities as a house leader. I actively helped the beginners, juniors and intermediates in getting ready for their races. I ran after them to keep them safe and organized. It was a really sunny day and I was really tired going after one activity to another but I knew that it was not only me who was tired. Although I got really sunburned at the end of the day, I know that it was just a way to contribute to our house and I really did my best to do my duties as a house leader. For that reason, I really did not have regrets.
Although Blue house was only able to garner second place at the Field day, I believe that it was really the best we could do despite all the injuries and others. I believe that this was not possible without the determination of other house members and leaders who were willing to run different races for the house. I am really thankful to everyone and feel sorry about not being more active in the races. I think that this was also an opportunity for more cooperation within the house and also a chance for me to also fight against my weakness, which is the doing sports.
