Beautiful day Quote by Sarah Bowen Shea
““A typical race morning usually starts out looking like a scene from a zombie movie: individuals or pairs of people walking down a deserted street, all headed in the same direction… Inevitably, regardless of the weather, U2's "Beautiful Day" streams out of loudspeakers.””
