Great insight. I ran in this Boston Marathon. I got to mile 25.5, half a mile to go, before the course was closed and we were asked to simply leave the course and walk away from the city. Your paragraph about feeling such a high and then immediately go so low is right on the money! It is a feeling that I am still processing. At the same time, I am very sorry for those who lost limbs and loved ones. It makes not finishing the marathon seem completely inconsequential in comparison.
