There are other characters like Nico - chan. He adds a bit of humor to the group. And Prince, who is not the most athletic at first but has his own journey of growth in the world of running as depicted in the 'Run with the Wind' Japanese novel.
The themes include perseverance. The runners face various difficulties but keep on going. Also, there is a sense of competition. They strive to be better than their opponents while also respecting them. And the theme of growth is prominent as the characters develop both physically and mentally throughout the story.

Since I haven't read it, I can't say for sure. But it could be a young man and a young woman who are the main characters, as is often the case in love - themed novels.
It's possible that the main characters are outsiders in a society. They might be running because they are different and not accepted. Through their running, they could find others like them and form a new community. Or perhaps they are rebels fighting against an unjust system and their running is part of their resistance strategy.
There's Caballo Blanco. He is a key figure in the running community depicted in the novel. He has a certain charisma and knowledge about running that attracts others.
There's no way to determine the main characters without more information about the 'cut and run novel'. However, in a general sense for this type of story, it might be a character who is fearless and quick - witted. This person could be leading others in the 'cut and run' scenario. Or perhaps it's a young protagonist who is forced to grow up fast due to the need to cut and run. There could also be an antagonist who is chasing the characters who are trying to escape.
Well, the girl herself is surely one of the main characters. But without reading the novel, it's hard to say exactly who else. There might be someone she is running from, like a villainous figure.
One of the main themes is friendship. The characters in the story support and grow with each other through their shared experiences in running. Another theme is self - discovery. As they train and compete, they learn more about their own limits and capabilities.
Logan is one of the main characters in Logan's Run novel. He is a Sandman, a kind of enforcer in the society. Jessica is another important character. She becomes involved with Logan and challenges his views and the system they live in.
There could also be a detective - like character who is running for his life while trying to solve a mystery. He might be getting too close to the truth in a case involving powerful and dangerous people, and now he has to use his wits not only to solve the mystery but also to stay alive while being chased by the bad guys.
