Wow. I love every detail you poured into the telling of the marathon. The image that will stay with me the most, though, is that of you folding your legs up against your chest and wrapping your arms around them. "I tap into a store of inner strength. It’s intuitive and subtle, like the metta (‘loving-kindness’) that some Buddhist practitioners direct inward during meditation." What a gift.
