Lana loves to run; it's like the moment her feet leave hit the track, she can fly. But her world gets turned upside-down when the father who abandoned her as a child shows up to claim her. Runner Girl is a re-imagining of the myth of Atalanta, and it was my MA thesis at Hollins University. I'm really excited to share it here for the first time!
