Corpse Girl ran track

I rolled over two or three times and crawled on my hands and knees until I got to my feet and then I ran as hard as I could. Being on the track team finally paid off.
I think I realized then that I only had one shoe on, but all I could really think about was running away from the gunshots.
I ran maybe a hundred yards and saw an ex-person.
…
I ran a half-marathon right after New Year’s and I think I ran at least that much getting away from all the exes.
