The Runner

Bullet Tillerman runs. He runs to escape the criticism of his harsh, unforgiving father. He runs to numb the pain of his mother�� inability to express her love. He is the star of the school track team, but he isn�� a team man and doesn�� want to be. Bullet runs for himself.

���� So Bullet doesn�� understand why he�� been asked to train a new team member, and he�� not looking forward to the task. But in coaching Tamer Shipp, Bullet learns some things about himself��ho he is, and who he can perhaps become.
