Jessica Wakefield can't wait to get to class to see what Danny Jackson will do next. He's only been at Sweet Valley Middle School for a couple of months but he's already well known as the best runner on the track team and as a major troublemaker. While Jessica is enjoying the effect Danny's behaivour is having on her classes, her sister, Elizabeth, is worried. Doesn't Danny realize that his pranks are going to get him thrown off the track team for good?
When Elizabeth wites a story on DAnny and the track team for the school paper, she discovers the real reason he's been getting into trouble. It's something he's been hiding from everyone. Can Elizabeth help Danny without betraying him?

Jessica folded her arms across her chest. "Are you going to let me tell you the story or not?"
"Sorry. Go on," Elizabeth said.
"Well, Danny fot called to the principal's office," her twin began. "And Mr. Clark told Danny that if he gets into trouble one more time, he's off the track team - for good."
Elizabeth couldn't believe it. Danny had never gotten into much trouble before. "Maybe he'll be really careful from now on," she said. "He practically lives for track. There's no way he's going ti let himself get kicked off the team."
"Want a bet?" Jessica asked. "When's the meet?"
"It's three weeks from yesterday," Elizabeth told her.
"Three weeks." Jessica shook her head. "Danny can't stay out of troube three hours. He's not going to last three weeks without doing anything!" she predicted.
Elizabeth hoped she was wrong. Without Danny, the team couldn't possibly win!
