Runner Crawls to Finish to Win Title for Her Ailing Coach

Atta girl!

A top runner who hits the wall. A coach with a cruel illness. A state championship at stake.

Such was the situation last Saturday when Holland Reynolds, a star runner from a small private high school in San Francisco, collapsed at the state cross-country meet and crawled across the finish line to clinch the championship for her team.

Holland will go places in her life...as her coach said in one interview...

Her vision was locked on her goal.

Saw it this morning. Even without the Hollywood scene (coach, championship), it's a great story. Good for her; she'll go far in life with that type of determination.
