I almost made it once around the yard before I fell on my back.

Jessie and Robbie came running over. “Are you all right?” they asked together.

“Yeah. I think so, but could you guys help me up? I think I’m stuck.”

They each took one of my hands and helped me up.

“That was awesome!” said Jessie. “You’re really getting the hang of it. I think we should start timing you now and working on your speed.”

“Whatever you say, coach,” I said, smiling.

Robbie pulled a little notebook and stopwatch out of his pocket. “Jessie, you help Freddy with his form, and I’ll keep track of his times in my notebook.”

We must have stayed outside training for about two hours.

When it started to get dark, I said, “Uh, guys.”

“Yeah?”

“My feet are so cold, I don’t think I can feel my toes anymore.”

“Well, I think that’s enough training for today. Let’s go in.”

“So, how did it go?” asked my mom.

“It went great, Mrs. Thresher,” said Jessie. “If we practice every afternoon this week, Freddy is going to win that race.”
