Marathon in Wonderland


Do you ever find mushrooms huffing and puffing?

Yes! Mushrooms do run marathon. Everyday! They run on rough mountainous terrains which involve many uphill and downhill works. Those are tedious and adventurous.

I only run on the road, but this is enough to drive me half-dead, yet the impulsive rush of adrenaline gets me addicted, and I have already run marathon for three consecutive years.

Alice said this is too heavy. She only enjoys daydreaming, though daydreaming and marathon take place in the same Wonderland.

I've never tried marathon. Don't think i can do it.

A marathon would be fun. I would sometimes run a long way just for fun, but never as far as a marathon. Before Alice grew up I would sometimes race her through the forest.

I admire mushrooms and you for racing. It is tiring and I am not surprised that a couple of them are flying. Regards.

The marathon is a ferocious sport. Mushrooms are really tough.

You are right, Wonderland is for both runners and dreamers (and for people like you who are both!).... Congratulations on keeping up with the running. The second picture is magical!

Alice in Wonderland always scared me as a child. Not sure why.
