Two jokers¹⁶

One fellow was running the marathon in sandals. Vidura gave him his running shoes and they fit him.

In the last two miles Virendra ran so fast that he passed four or five runners.

He came in second.

The two brothers, Aviram and Pravaha, are such jokers. At thirteen miles I saw them stop and go into the hotel. The tall one said, “Guru, after thirteen miles we realised we were not wearing your T-shirt, so we went into the hotel.”

Then the little one said, “Guru, we got a little tired, so we stopped!”
