​Each chapter begins with a song that Jane is listening to while running.  The lyrics tie into the secret and many other stories that Jane tells about Gaby, her family, and mostly herself. 
​
The physical and emotional journey of running a marathon is continuously felt.  Jane’s sixty-four songs are listed at the end of the book.  It is a great playlist for those who run a ten minute mile like Jane.
