“Running isn't me. This body also isn't me. It's a bunch of skin and fat and skeleton carrying around the real me, my brain or my spirit or whatever it is that makes Lizzie. Sometimes I think it was a mistake that I wound up in this body--maybe even a mistake that I wound up being human. Maybe I was supposed to be a tree. Tall, steady, solitary, wise. Watching the rest of the world run.” — Karen Wilfrid
