The San Francisco Marathon44
I ran ten and a half miles before the San Francisco Marathon started. Then I was in the car while Gayatri and others started running the actual race. I watched them run for several miles. Then I ran six and a half miles in the marathon.At the seventeen-mile point, Sharon said to me, “Gayatri is coming up behind you.”
I said, “Let me enter into the car. Take me at least two miles ahead of her.”
So Sharon took me about two miles in the car, but she couldn’t go any farther because of the beach. Then I started running very peacefully. After that, I saw Gangadhar running in the other direction. Then I saw Gayatri coming from a different direction and she was shouting to Gangadhar.
