This should have been an utterly amazing series of photos. But it isn't. It's what you get left with when people who make commitments to you -- don't. And none of this was TFP. So I'm out not only the photograph I wanted but hundreds of dollars of time-sensitive subject material.
At least marathoners are reliable. Marathoners know what it takes to be successful. It takes training and showing up and living up to the commitments you make. Marathoners respect the race, and respect the distance. They have to, because the marathon is not for wannabes and pretenders.
"Everything you ever needed to know about yourself you can learn in 26.2 miles."
You shouldn't be allowed to be an assistant or a model unless you have run a marathon. In fact, they should be forced to run a marathon!!

Quit making excuses, Hemingson. Go with the flow. Shoot something else. Turn around and frame up the unexpected. The world isn't there to be nice to you. No one had assistants in the trenches of WWI. Toughen up, kid. (lol) Hey, I would've liked to hear the details of what really DID happen, without a lot of unnecessary kevetching.
