“Dude, why are you even out here on a day like this?” I shrugged and shook my head. “Because you’re not.” I didn’t think much of my flippant comment at first. But as I ran ahead, I savored it. I’d picked the worst day of the summer for my longest run of the week. Why? Because nobody else would even consider doing something like that, and that gave me a chance to prove myself to be uncommon amongst the uncommon once again.
