    Some people are very swift runners. They can run several miles in very short time. There is a man living near me and his name is Frank Shortt. Some people call him "the runner" and he won gold medals. He is too old to run now. There is another boy by the name of Tommie O'Dwyer. He is a great runner and jumper.
