Six-Word Search: “Run”
Tuesday, August 28th, 2012
A runner isn’t just an athlete in Nike shoes. Running away or running out of words are universal phenomenon. Hearts run brains, as much as other people often run our lives. Even sentences can stretch out by running-on. People run away from themselves, afraid to confront their fears. As fall begins, and the days of summer run out even as those running for office take the national stage at the conventions, it’s tempting to consider running away to someplace else. These SMITH users have their own take on running, so run wild with their memoirs below. And as ultramarather Dean Karnazes reminded us in the first book of Six-Word Memoirs, “When all else fails, start running.”
