My older sister is a runner. She has always loved to run.
She runs the 10-kilometre race. She is a great runner. She used to be a pretty good sprinter(短跑运动员), but one day all of that changed because of a little mistake she made. She went to practice early in the morning. But she forgot to bring her sports shoes.
Sports shoes are special because they're small and light. When her coach knew that, he got mad. As a punishment, he ordered her to run around the playground. So, she went. Soon, she was running with other people who were on the it long distance(距离)practice runs.
The runners were moving fast. It surprised the coach to see that this girl could keep up. The long-distance coach asked the sprinting coach, "Who is that?" "That's one of my students." he said.
In the end, she came in first in her first time running a long-distance race! The two coaches looked down and realized she wasn't wearing any shoes! "Well, you told me to run and I thought you meant right away, so I just got up and ran, "she explained. "I can't believe how comfortable it is to run without my feet inside those little shoes. "
From that moment on, my sister's sprinting days were over. She was a natural long-distance runner. She works hard and hopes to go to the Olympics one day. Who knows what might happen?
