The hostile runner³²

Just before the four-mile run started, I was unfortunately standing beside a man who was very hostile. While Thomas was giving instructions to the runners, the man said, “Stop chirping!”

When Thomas asked for one minute of silence, the man said, “What nonsense!”

This same man finished far behind me in the race.
