The persevering runner⁵

Yesterday while playing tennis I saw a woman running very slowly. I am sure she was going at a twenty-minute pace, at least. She had to lose about forty pounds, but she was going on, going on. You should have seen how slowly she was running! I was admiring her patience and perseverance.
