And even then, sometimes it withers, and still you have to try again, because sometimes it blooms.

I stood in the starting corral for the Vancouver Eastside 10k. I’d opted to pocket my house key and keep my windbreaker, so I dropped the two loonies I had brought for the bag check — decidedly not worth the jingle as I ran. “Excuse me, I think you dropped some money!” I turned around to the runner behind to explain what I thought was my overt disposal of the currency. “I know,” I said with my palms raised to shoulder height in an apologetic surrender. “I can’t be bothered to carry it.
