Holly:
Never mind – I can help you prepare. I know all
about keeping fit. I can give you lots of advice.
Jed:
Oh … OK then! There. My name’s on the list!
Holly:
Right, well, the first thing to do is to buy some
special running clothes.
Jed:
Really?
Holly:
Yes, and you should get some new trainers.
Jed:
Oh dear! That sounds expensive.
Holly:
But it’s important.
Now, how much time have
you got before the race?
Jed:
Six weeks. Maybe I should download one
of those apps. You know – ‘couch to 5k in 6
weeks’. My mum uses one and says it’s really
good.
Holly:
No, you don’t need that! Listen to me. You
should start tomorrow. Get up early and go
running before school.
Jed:
But I hate getting up early.
Holly:
Well, you should go running every day. You
need to go to bed early every night now Jed.
No more TV or computer games.
Jed:
Uhh?
Holly:
You want to finish the race, don’t you?
Jed:
Well, yeah.
Holly:
Remember – you should eat well and drink
lots of water. And you shouldn’t have any
chocolate or cake. Oh, and as well as running,
you should go swimming or cycling.
