Marathon Kids is a special running program sponsored by RunTex. For five months, children run a half-mile to one mile at a time
until they reach 26.2 miles. This is the total distance of a marathon. Students who have participated this year will cross the 26-mile line on Saturday, February 16. On that day, kindergartners through fifth-graders will receive their Marathon Kids medals. The Final Mile Medal Celebration will be held at Burger Center, located at 3200 Jones Road. In a short summary of this article, which detail would be most important to include?
A.

B.

C.

D.

A is the only possible answer. The article does not have any information about the number of RunTex stores in town, how to be part of Marathon Kids, or the history of child marathon runners. Summaries of an article should not include information that the article does not contain.
