Fast girls : a novel of the 1936 Women's Olympic team by Elise Hooper, read by a cast 499 pgs.
A compelling story of women athletes at a time when there was some question if running might damage a woman. There were members of the Olympic committee arguing against women even participating. Here is a story of several participants of the 1936 Olympics but also some back story about each. Enjoyable and mostly based on fact but I could only wonder how much better non-fiction would have been.
