This is a story about a boy who lived in a town in the middle of nowhere. His dream was to become a world famous track runner. He would train his stamina and agility everyday. He ate healthy, went to sleep, and woke up on a schedule he made to improve himself. But, what he didn’t know was that all his hard work was going to work out in the end.
Everyday, he would ride his bike to the woods where he made a trail for him to train. Then, in the afternoon, he would ride his bike home, have a fruit, fill his bottle of water, and then leave his bike and jog to the trail to train his stamina. When he got to the trail, he would try to beat his own record. One day, he was showing his friend his trail; at that moment his friend realized that John would be a successful track runner. He decided to video tape his friend and sends it to a TV show of extraordinary talent that he would always watch. They aired the clip and many people where astonished by his determination, speed, and his endurance. This famous and rich entrepreneur flew in to talk to John, and see him perform. After seeing John’s talent he offered to sponsor him. The next day John accepted the offer and signed the contract to start running for the teenage track team at his new school, which his sponsor fully paid. He quickly became the captain of the track team. The years after that were even better for him. He won many medals and also had a chance to run in the Olympics where he got the first place trophy for all running competitions. He became rich and shared his wealth with his best friend that got him where he is today.
To conclude this, I believe anyone can become anything they want to be, if they set their minds to it. This shows how good friends can be, and that friendship can last forever. By the time he retired he had won hundreds of Gold medals. After his retirement, he went around the world in search of gifted athlete to make their dreams come true like his sponsor and friend did for him.
