A Florence, Italy micro scene
Alas, the rain had emptied the stands of their always-present race fans, so Penelope was forced to charge around the usual melodic course without any adoring gazes to prod her forward. Today it was simply for the joy of running round and round that she raced. Important, since it was never clear who crossed the finish line first anyway. But, joy nonetheless.
