One day, my PE teacher said to me, "You have great potential. Why not try running It will help you keep healthy." I decided to have a try. At first, I could only run 500 meters. I was very tired and wanted to give up. But my teacher encouraged me, "Keep going! You can do better."
After three months, I could run 3,000 meters. I also became thinner and healthier. My classmates no longer laughed at me. Instead, they often asked me how to keep fit. Now I like sports and have many friends. I learn that as long as we stick to something, we will see changes.

My Changes
I have changed a lot over the past few years. When I was in primary school, I was very shy. I was afraid to speak in class and had few friends. But now, I am more outgoing. I often take part in class activities and have many good friends.
I used to hate English, but now I like it very much. I read English books every day and even join an English club. These changes make me happier and more confident. I know that growing up is all about changing, and I will keep improving myself.
