“I love rock climbing too! I’m not just a ninja, okay? One time I was in a bouldering competition. (Bouldering means no ropes—just me, the wall, and my squishy crash pad if I fall. Scary but fun!)
They rank climbs with a V and a number, like V1, V2, V3. The bigger the number, the harder it is. (So basically V stands for Very Hard.)
Anyway, it was almost the end of the competition and I was in 4th place. Boo. Then I saw a V3 climb that could bump me up to 2nd. But the problem was—it had a GIANT jump. Like superhero-jump giant. I had already tried it five times, and my arms were like spaghetti noodles.
But I jumped, and grabbed the tiny ledge with just my fingers. AND I MADE IT!! Guess who got second place? This ninja.”

I love to watch the competitions, working hard and the extra efforts really pay off. The other competitors work hard too . Great job!
