From TV Asahi site:

Nanairogaoka Middle School was about to hold its sports festival soon! The egg race, tug-of-war, item collection race... and the anticipated "interclass relay race"!

"I'll run!" Nao, who is great at running, had promised to run in the "interclass relay race"! Miyuki, Akane, Yayoi and Reika were to take part too!! However, Yayoi, who could not run well, was doubtful...

The 5 girls started on relay race training! Nao, acting as coach, taught the other girls how to pass the baton and how to run fast, and everyone started to gain confidence! Yayoi's doubts were also slowly swept away!

On the day of the sports festival, the girls anxiously waited to begin the race. Just as the race was about to begin, Akaoni appeared!!

What would happen to the sports festival and relay race!? Would the girls complete the race successfully...!?
