00:00Two Boston Creams, please.
00:02All right.
00:03Waiter, four.
00:04What day is it?
00:06It's starting tomorrow.
00:07I told you no eating in bed.
00:09Sorry.
00:10Cookies just call me at night.
00:13Better get me one.
00:14You need some electrolytes or something.
00:16You look like crap.
00:17I used to take my mom's language classes.
00:20But when she died, I don't know.
00:23I couldn't keep going.
00:26I hate it when you act like I should know what you're saying.
00:28I need you to promise me that you're going to go on a diet.
00:31And you're going to start exercising.
00:33Totally.
00:34I'm exercising right now.
00:35I'm Jess.
00:36I'm running.
00:39So why'd you throw your meds out?
00:41I didn't.
00:42Yeah, you did.
00:43Beck.
00:44I don't want to live my life on pills.
00:48It's in your blood.
00:49Type 2 diabetes is manageable with proper care.
00:53Her mother had it.
00:54For a second I thought you died.
00:56Do I look sick to you?
00:58I just want to go live with my dad.
01:01You can't tell me how to live my life.
01:03I read about your health concerns in the paper and I thought I'd drop by and check on you.
01:06What the heck?
01:07It's not in the paper, don't worry.
01:08I was making a joke.
01:09I thought, this will be funny.
01:10But it's your health, so it isn't funny.
01:13What's the soonest a person can go from someone like me...
01:19Here I go.
01:20Oh, I'm so sorry.
01:21...to a marathon runner?
01:22A couple months of steady training would be fast.
01:25So what are you going to do?
01:29I'm training.
01:30I'm giving thanks each mile.
01:32Runners!
01:34Take your mark!
01:36Oh, you don't gotta yell.
01:38Go.
01:39I said go!
01:41Run, woman, run!
