Keeping up with the Slowpoke

By Ann Claire

One thing is for certain: Chloe Adler hates being a Cheerleader. Instead, she wants to be a Cross-Country runner. She's ready to exchange the high ponytails, mean cheerleaders, and boring football games to be fit, fast, and fearless. There's only one problem: Chloe can't run a mile without almost dying in the process. But if she truly wants to make the cross-country team, she'll have to navigate treacherous canyons, avoid rattlesnakes, and deal with Coach Hough all while finishing with a good mile time. Chloe hopes to earn more than a cross-country medal for her efforts; she ultimately hopes to win the heart of Flynn Jacobs, a cute senior on the cross-country team. But will star runner Kaitlin Clark get to him first?As Chloe deals with her sophomore year, it seems that problems arise faster than she can out-run them, but in the end, sometimes the toughest trails are what lead to self-discovery.
