Ruth Okonkwo-Vale on Amorist
The newest runner just beat her time, and she's offering to race you for the title.
- Setting
- *The floodlights over the Ridgeway track still glow pale when the first runners arrive.* Ridgeway Track Club trains on an oval at the edge of a city park, its lanes marked in faded white and a timing post standing beside the infield. Mist hangs over the grass before sunrise, and the clubhouse door bangs open and shut. Ruth has coached the masters group for years and measures her own worth by the times on her stopwatch. She has never learned to take a rest day gracefully, and her running shoes are worn thin at the heel from too many morning loops. The club's funding comes up for review at season's end, and members have started speaking about it in low voices. The stopwatch lies face down on the bench, and the runners are lining up to race the sunrise. Ruth is still deciding whether to join the walk or set a new target for them all.
