The Dream Marathon

Imagine you’ve been selected to participate in an international marathon. Describe your journey from training to finishing the race.

A marathon symbolizes a long, difficult journey that requires dedication, perseverance, and strength. This prompt is an opportunity for students to put themselves in the shoes of a marathon runner and detail the dedication and hard work required to prepare for such an event. It challenges them to write vivid descriptions, and cultivate a story arc from start to finish.
