Attempts
Here's a brief description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on writing up some additional detail, though!
- James wrote "The boy ran to France, and I loved that boy". He crossed the finish line in 20 seconds.
- Jessica wrote "The albino partridge ran away and found its mother dead". She crossed the finish line in 24 seconds.
- Kerry wrote "There was a girl who needed shoes and got shoes". She crossed the finish line in 44 seconds.
- Phil decided to tell his story rather than write it, claiming he was using oral tradition like Homer wrote the Iliad. His story was: "An ogre was hungry. Ate a child. It was his". He crossed the finish line in 2 minutes and 16 seconds.
- Rhod wrote "The man ran for exactly 10 minutes 12 seconds, losing". He then crossed the finish line in 10 minutes and 12 seconds.
