A female runner says that a few weeks ago, she was in an art class, with a group of people, and that the conversation went on until well after midnight, in the photo-darkroom studio.

During the months when she was forced to use crutches after surgery, she found in art an outlet, by “moving” along the path she calls the river road.

She then explains the cyanotype technique: coating a support with a light-sensitive emulsion, exposing it to light with a negative or an object, and then rinsing to get a blue image.

To wrap up, she poses a question to readers: what do you say and what do you like to do when you’re not running?
