401
The nerves are getting the best of me......i gotta find away outta this. There is no way im running this race. There is no way i can win so why run....every sound is audible......bell rings......bodies in the hallway seem large and inexplicably noisy.....ok get it together...go find him......anybody seen coach holleran?....... Think of something dammit! Im not getting embarrased in front of the whole state today....Ok Ok im late for class.....gotta go talk to this man.......
Two loud knocks.......uh coach can i talk to you?....he says yes with an obvious infuriated nod. Whats up? he says eagerly.....uh...dont freeze up.....ok um i just dont think i should run the 400 today.....im higher ranked in the hurdles anyway right?!
A pause as im dragged outside.....and then the words were uttered that changed my life.....YOU WILL RUN THE 4 TODAY AND YOU WILL WIN......you wanna know why he says....everyone else is going to the track today to run 400 meters.....you are going to run 401......everything slows down, nervousness subsides and.........he wins by a lean......401.
