Book 1 Born to run

Alan C.McLean

I have read the book Born to run. It´s a great book!

Sara Foxley was born to run and she knows that. When the National Championship is coming, she does not know what she should do. Her boyfriend Eddie does not understand why she loves to run and its hard for Sara. It´s only one question, can she win the National Championship and still keep Eddie?

Sara runs twice a day, once in the morning and once after school. She and her friend Judy have a trainer called Bill. Both of them run the 400 meters. 

    One evening last summer she was out and running. Outside the café there where a crowd of boys in leather jackets. One of them was Eddie. Eddie is Saras boyfriend now.         

Bill wanted Sara to go to bed early one night, but Eddie said to Sara ´´come with me to the disco´´ and Sara could not say no to him. Next day it is the school championship and Sara runs worse then usual. Bill is angry and say to her that she must listen to him, but she    didn´t.

    Eddie does not understand Sara about running. Its her thing and she tries to explain it for him, but Eddie does not listen and break up with her.

   Sara feels bad, but the National Championship is here now. Can she beat Tracy and still have Eddie as her boyfriend?
