Rise Prongs is good at running. His life changes when he gets the letter to attend a national running training. What awaits him is more than racing- a dystopian whirlwind of events haunts him like death. His new friends Jackson, Nix, Lily, and Han must compete in the Deathathon with Rise in a journey of friendship on the tumultuous track of life.

Track to Deathathon

Rise runs at a steady pace, one foot in front of the other on the smooth track a few feet next to Jackson. The bright light of the indoor track is turned on high, even though it is the beginning of the day. It sure makes for a rough awakening with bright lights opening their pupils. Any traces of sleep are lost in the lights. Although they begin today’s workout at 5 am, tomorrow they must wake up even earlier for the Deathathon race. They might have to be up as early as 3 am tomorrow. Great, thinks Rise. The only problem with that is trying to sleep right away to get the most sleep. The runners would need all the sleep they could get. Because it was the last day before the event, there was already a large turnout at the indoor track from the other teams.
