It’s pretty thankless, what I do. It’s certainly not one of the glamour sports, like baseball or figure skating. Nor one of the outlander sports, like Parkour or snowboarding.

No, I am a dedicant to breath, to the coiled springs of my calves, to metronomically swinging arms and one foot after the other. Right foot, left foot, over and over and over again until the turbine of my core, the spinning wheels of my limbs, like the Road Runner’s in some cartoon, slows down and stops me.

It is mile 25 when my foot catches a crack in the road.

Aww - sorry to hear it. Hope that doesn't happen again.

No worries - fiction. I can barely run 2 miles, are you kidding me? ;)

Well, what with my dad running 50-milers all the time*, I kinda lost my sense of how uncommon marathoning is. Just consider my reaction a positive review, then. :P

* By which I mean approximately yearly.
