The runner was in third place, but he pushed harder and thought he might be able to reach second. What was beginning to do?\nOptions:\n- near finish line\n- finish\n- get tired\n- gain ground\n- trip over Hmmm, let me think.

A runner can gain ground if they try harder. A third place runner can gain ground if they try for second.
So, the answer is gain ground.
