Iron Tamariki

This Book is about a boy named Mana he's in a  swimming and running event. The event is called Iron Maori Tamariki. Mana has to run 1 kilometer and has to swim a 100 meter swim. The event is in Napier in December. Mana doesn't want to do the event but dad gave him a deal.The deal was that if Mana does the event dad will cook his favorite food all year.

 Mana dad and mum trains him so Mana spent  time with mum for a week and dad for a week too. Mum takes him to his swimming and his dad takes him for his running.

When it was time they were at Napier. First it was the 100 meter swim first then the 1 kilometer run. Mana was really nervous it was a very big crowd. When it went BANG! there were off Mana was swimming as fast as he could. When it was the end Mana was the first boy to get out. Mana  saw his family Mana's family was supporting on the sideline.   But Mana had to put on his shoes then  start  running. Some of the Con testers passed Mana but he didn't care about them.He wasn't so worried because he did it with dad.When it was nearly the end Mana was the first boy.Then he came first place. Mana's family was  great at supporting.
