Yet Wiest has managed to bleach the intelligence out of her face, leaving only a cunning child with the look of a battered seraph. This is no flesh-and-blood performance; it is pure, chilling marrow.

A former college running teammate of Dellinger's, Clements has theorized that ferritin, an iron complex stored mainly in the bone marrow, is used or discharged by endurance runners faster than it is replaced.
