“More and more, she had difficulty enduring people who denied the simple fact that yes, some days were to be seized, to be won, to be lived to the fullest, days like the opening miles of a marathon, where one was filled with gusto and energy and the early, jittery stages of possibility, of believing one could simply run forever, but that in all reality, more days were like the middle miles, strenuous but more tedious, more foot-to-pavement repetition of the same, always the same, or those days, especially as one aged, that resembled the final miles, the body fatigue, the mental weariness, the fight for enough air, the desire, ultimately, to grit one’s teeth and just get through it, to just reach the finish line.”
