Phone it in

Courtney Dauwalter

Imagine you were visiting Minnesota’s largest candy store (which, incidentally, happens to be called Minnesota’s Largest Candy Store, located at 20430 Johnson Memorial Dr, Jordan, Minnesota—tell ‘em we sent you), and you saw legendary ultrarunner Courtney Dauwalter chewing on a 6-foot-long rainbow sour strap and pushing a shopping cart overflowing with candy. Nothing weird about that, right? Right. But what if, as she was turning a corner and out of sight, she dropped her phone?

Presumably, you’d pick it up and run after her. But let’s just say that when you turned the corner, she’d completely vanished—which is possible given how fast she is. So, what then? Hand the phone over to store authorities? Deliver it to the local police? Hurl it off the Thomas Rukavina Memorial Bridge? Of course not. You’d never do that. You’d guess the passcode and go through her photos.

Fortunately, this fabulously unlikely scenario will never have to play out for you to get a glimpse of Courtney Dauwalter’s photo album because she’s the subject of this issue’s Phone It In! Let’s take a peek.
