One game a year. One race. One run with your friends. It lasts a morning, maybe two hours. Then it's over for another year.
The other 364 days are early alarms and empty roads. Workouts on lunch breaks. Miles in the dark after long days. Nobody sees it, nobody's keeping score. You show up anyway, because that one morning means something to you.
Almost Athletic is for those days. All 364 of them.
