“ When a “runner” runs, they run. But in time the “runner” finds themselves in a no-brain situation.

“No matter what plan you choose or how fast or far you go, you’re a runner. If you combine walking with running, you’re a runner. If you run twice a week, you’re a runner.

And partly because she's a fucking human being.”
