Three Lives Along the Track

A single track season connects sophomore runner Sarah Turner, her father Ben, and personal trainer Amber Jones. Sarah has the talent to run but lacks the resources to compete at an elite level; Amber, a former NCAA finalist, is still pursuing qualification for the U.S. Olympic Trials. Ben’s devotion to his daughter and his students at their K–12 school sits alongside his private grief over his wife’s death. The description frames their intersecting journeys through faith, family, ambition, and the obstacles that shape athletic dreams.
