Sentence: Every Saturday you could see them running through the neighborhood. The 8 of them called themselves The Marrythoners, as they had all met while in marathon training and ended up marrying each other. We however called them the Sociopathletes. When they set out each weekend, they travelled as one and ignored traffic rules and basic mores of society. They thought they were Kings of the Road but we thought they were Things Needing Towed. They set race relations way back...
