He went from train-hopping to running to and from his destination. Eventually, he was able to achieve his goal of running in the Olympics, but he had to quit due to his lung being full of pus. Later on, Zamperini fought in World War II and crashed a raft in the ocean and had to survive against the Japanese.]]> 2018-10-23 13:53:22 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/295944511 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297108625 Louis Zamperini is the man who the story is about. He started off as a troublemaker, but cleaned up his act and eventually pursued his dreams of being an olympic runner, and David Rensin is a cowriter who helped Zamperini write the story.]]> 2018-10-25 18:06:54 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297108625 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297196946 2018-10-25 21:38:36 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297196946 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297197738 2018-10-25 21:42:45 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297197738 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297198090 2018-10-25 21:44:35 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297198090 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297198390 2018-10-25 21:46:12 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297198390 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297198592 2018-10-25 21:47:06 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297198592 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297198870 2018-10-25 21:48:38 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297198870 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297204407 2018-10-25 22:18:26 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297204407 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297205074 2018-10-25 22:22:48 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297205074 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297205259 2018-10-25 22:23:57 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297205259 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297206571 "That summer I cut out my bad habits and trained fanatically. Instead of hitchhiking to the beach, I ran the four miles along the beach and four miles back to Torrance. I even ran to the store for my mother. On weekends I'd head for the mountains and run around lakes, chase deer, jump over rattlesnakes and fallen trees and streams. I've always been a loner, so the solitude never bothered me. I just ran like crazy. I felt really free and piled up mile upon mile."]]> 2018-10-25 22:33:17 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297206571 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297207149 "'Before I crashed at sea,' I said, 'I told you there were still many miles left in these legs. That hasn't changed. I'll be running again. In fact, I hope to qualify not just for the next Olympics in 1948, but for the next three!'"]]> 2018-10-25 22:37:21 UTC https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297207149 joseph_martin2 https://padlet.com/joseph_martin2/sn2l5hd23smz/wish/297208950 This was a different race but a race nonetheless.
