Girl: It's the big running race on Saturday, and I know loads of local people are coming along to watch and cheer. I'm feeling really nervous about it, which is a bit unexpected, but then a lot depends on the result. This time, if I win, I can go on to compete in the national championships. That's putting a lot of pressure on me. I just know the other competitors will have spent months preparing for it, and I can't really claim that if I'm honest. So I suppose if I don't get the result I'm hoping for, which is likely, I've only got myself to blame.
