Half Moon Summer
Half Moon Summer | Elaine Vickers
1 post | 1 read
Two seventh graders discover it takes more than grit and a good pair of shoes to run 13.1 miles. You’ve got to have a partner who refuses to let you quit. Drew was never much of a runner. Until his dad’s unexpected diagnosis. Mia has nothing better to do. Until she realizes entering Half Moon Bay’s half-marathon could solve her family’s housing problems. And just like that they decide to spend their entire summer training to run 13.1 miles. Drew and Mia have very different reasons for running, but these two twelve year olds have one crucial thing in common (besides sharing a birthday): Hope. For the future. For their families. And for each other.

Drew and Mia‘s stories intertwine and separate over and over again, always returning to the path. Their stories both show the value of resiliency; of taking one more step, running a little further, just breathe, breathe, breathe, and being there for each other. Theirs is a beautiful story of friendship and family and running.
