Zhang Han's heart sank. To prepare, students had to run two laps every morning. Zhang Han recorded his feelings in a diary: "Day 1—finished last, felt ashamed." "Day 5—still slow, but did not stop walking." He then listed small targets: "Jog 400 m without stopping," "Keep pace with Li Wei for one lap." Week by week his time improved. On the final test he completed the 3 km in 16 minutes—middle of the class. "I discovered I can beat my old self," he wrote. "That is enough victory for me." 21.
