Sara loved running fast, so she joined the track racing team at school. Her coach taught her how to run on the track. "Start with a warm-up," the coach said. Sara jogged slowly to stretch her muscles. Next, they practiced running in lanes. Sara learned to run straight and not bump into others. Sara's favorite race was the sprint. It was a short, fast race. She ran as fast as she could. Sometimes, she ran with a baton in a relay race. Her team passed the baton from one runner to the next. "Go, go, go!" they cheered. At the track meet, Sara was excited. She lined up with other runners. The race started. She ran with all her might. Sara crossed the finish line and smiled. She didn't win, but she did her best.
