January 24. That time during running when you can’t imagine giving it your all. In which it seems excessive to bring it on yourself now of all times. At other times you give everything, but not today. And how this time turns into the end of the run, in which you give everything as a matter of course.

Tomorrow it is supposed to snow for the first time this winter in New York, and if it doesn’t happen tomorrow either, that could break a record that goes back to the winter of 1972/73.
