Sidestepping put in perspective
"When I jump on the curb to pass a Sisterhood of Traveling Skorts who are walking hand-in-hand, six abreast (so to speak), it doesn’t seem gauche. At least not as gauche as their Sisterhood Is Powerful statement amongst the runners at the start of a 10k. It’s a bloody necessity to side step them on the concrete to avoid ruining their day of unity with a body slam from the rear. Maybe that’s what Robert [Cheruiyot] was thinking, too. I just need to get out of this freaking herd so I don’t plow the American golden boy."
