FULL TITLE
BLACK OR WHITE, YELLOW OR RED: LEAN IN TRANCE BUT MUSCULAR. ENDURANCE, EXALTED, THE RUNNERS SUFFER IN CADENCE TO THE SOUND OF THEIR BREATH ALONE, ALMOST IN SILENCE. THEY COUNT THE NUMBER OF STEPS, THEY SCAN THEIR SHADOW LIKE A COMPANION CLINGING TO THEIR SNEAKERS, LIKE A DARK DOUBLE THAT NEVER LEAVES THEM.
