"Stupid Fast" shatters the mold of typical sports novels, taking you on a raw and unflinching journey through the highs and lows of a high school cross country team battling for victory.

Paul Stafford is the prodigious protege of a coach whose name is synonymous with greatness. With dreams of glory and a heart full of ambition, Paul's every stride is driven by the pursuit of excellence.

When their legendary coach suddenly departs, Paul begins to unravel, pushing himself to the brink of self-destruction - and the team, once inseparable, is torn apart by clashing ambitions.

Enter Coach Cal, a newcomer with unconventional methods, and Felix, the lightning-fast transfer who threatens to dethrone Paul as the team's star. As rivalries ignite and secrets simmer, a dark cloud looms overhead in the form of a school doping scandal.

Weaving together the drama of high school life and the romance of running, Stupid Fast is a mesmerizing story of guts and glory, where the pursuit of perfection is a double-edged sword.

If you're looking for a story that challenges expectations and grapples with the dark side of ambition, lace up your shoes and prepare for an unforgettable run.
