2. Many <u>runners</u> come from all over the world to this event.

3. The <u>race</u> begins in a suburb of Boston.

4. The <u>course</u> takes runners around the Massachusetts countryside.

5. The night before the race, many <u>runners</u> eat pasta dinners.

6. These <u>carbohydrates</u> give the runners energy and stamina.

7. During the race, many <u>runners </u>hit "the wall" after 20 miles.

A simple predicate is the main part, a verb, of the complete predicate. A complete predicate includes all the descriptors besides the verb (e.g. The <u>race</u> begins in a suburb of Boston), but the simple predicate is just the verb (begins).
