What theme emerges in the story. consider what gregor's changing into an insect might symbolize?

I believe that the excerpt is entitled The Metamorphosis and the summary is indicated below:

The transformation and the unexpected events summarizes the theme of the short story and also do not forget the theme about the family approval. In the story, Gregor works a lot in order to pay off the debts of his parents but he is very unsatisfied with his work. Gregor's turning into an insect represents how little control he has over his own life. The more time Gregor works, the more of a vermin he becomes

no, because those are both different running competitions. while distance runners train their legs and their lungs to run long amounts of time, the sprinters are training their legs and their lungs to give all they have in the little amount of area they need to cover. the brain also plays a huge part in all of this.

the brain is the only thing in your body that sends messages to your body telling you to run. if you are a long distance runner and you have the mind set of a sprinter, you will not get anywhere. if you have a long distance mind set and you have to run 200m in 20 seconds then you will not make it in time.
