Girl on the Run: Sarah Tucker Redux

By Jim Knoedel

"Girl on the Run" continues the fictional story of Sarah Tucker, now running at Northwestern University in 1982, as she is introduced to college competition. After a tumultuous start, by mid-year it seems her collegiate career is on the brink of disaster. Only the chance to step away and a reassessment of her goals rekindles her desire to continue running. Although national level success as a sophomore still proves elusive, she redoubles efforts in pursuit of her goals - to be named as an All American and compete at the 1984 Olympic Trials. Set during the demise of the AIAW and initial acceptance of women into NCAA sports, this tale explores the obstacles still faced by females during the implementation of 1972 Title IX legislation.
