It's possible. She starts to close, and he notices her "Perdon" he says. "I'll make a bit of room" he says this all in Spanish, but not the Spanish she's used to. Castellian! he's from Spain

"De nada." she responds in her American-accented Mexican Spanish "Not competing today. Run your distance, I'll run mine."

"I wish I were so wise when I was at your age" Gentle humor "Beautiful view"

And he is not flirting with her, rather looking down the cliff edge

She settles back into her pace, letting her mind find stillness.

And it goes.. nicely. She finds that place in the moment of the run

She takes strength from it, peace. She sweats, her muscles stretch, her breathing is labored but not badly; she runs.

She even gets a bit of glamour from it. Trolls enjoy using their might, and not just for violence. There's a joy in being healthy, being strong

And of course, that inner tranquility that helps restore her, balance her.

She finally has to stop for a breath

She does, and drinks water; it feels good to need breath like his.

Yes, a bit of glamour does her good. She.. thinks she aged a bit too. Odd. Maybe a year?

She drinks more water. Weird that running aged me? Should run some more.

The man is catching up while she drinks

And he shoots by.

With a polite nod, a bit of glamour of his own

She uses her phone to get a surreptitious picture of him.

And by he goes

She stuff her phone back in the running pocket and takes a last swig of water, and takes off again. She's never been a sprinter, but long distance? Yeah.

Oh definitely... and this time, she sees a Chimera. A white bird, majestic...

Just flying by, it makes her feel.. healthier, even better than before

No, it's not right for that

A..Caladrius? larger than she thought. Believed to take a way diesase
