I was reminded of this book when I tried to read The Hunger Games. In it, a boy's family sends him to be part of this march where the goal is for only one person to be alive at the end. That person wins a ton of money or something. Soldiers march along side the children (I only remember boys) and shoot them if they go below 4 mph, fall over, etc. He of course befriends another boy as they march and has the ethical dilemma at the end of course.

That definitely sounds like it, although I was sure I read it earlier than that. I will definitely find at the library and see if that's the one. Thanks so much, Nikki!
Kelly, Please let us know when you figure it out. When do you think you read it?
Kelly, It looks as though in another group you posted this is the book.Can you/I move it to its solved folder and shelve it?
Thanks!
Yes, I was in the process of coming back here and saying it was solved but I got distracted. I found a synopsis online and this is definitely the book. Thanks!
