I wanted to be just like those big kids I saw wearing their medals and carrying their ribbons(绶带). So I__ __the cross?country team at my school.

? However, I was very slow in the team. In races, I would finish almost____. I'd always have to____in the longer races.The__? __races and at least 100 people competing in it made me really____. Every time I stopped, 10 people would__? __me. But I still couldn't push myself to keep going, even though I____watching them go by me. After every race, I'd go home and burst into tears.

? Then one of my friends joined the cross?country team, too. She never got tired and didn't get cramp(抽筋) in her legs. I just didn't understand how that was____! I'd been running much longer than she had, but she could run__? __while I had to suffer. She even came 8th in a big race with over 200 people in it! My____was lower than ever and I wanted to quit badly.

? I didn't, ____. Even a whole month before a race, I'd get so nervous that I felt like I might give up. Still, I____to quit. I still had that____appearing in my mind and I hung on to it.

? Finally, I realized the reason why the bigger races made me so nervous was that I was always worried that I wasn't____for them. I started to practice at home almost every day. I____a plan that had me running almost three kilometers every day, which helped me build up a steady____.

? When the time came for the big race, all the practice really____. I stopped only once and my pace was much better.

? I was____of myself for sticking with it even though it was really hard and I'd even wanted to quit. I showed myself that I was____enough to keep going. That was what made me feel good about myself and gave me confidence.

? The next time I'm faced with a tough____, I will know that I can take it up. None of this would ever have happened if I had quitted!
