The six or seven of us total strangers huddled in a close group hug, sharing body warmth to keep each other from hypothermia.
The people in the apartment along the course who opened their home to anyone needing water, a restroom, a place to wait.
This is the nature of most people. Never let the evil in the world overshadow that.
