The days right after a marathon are a particular physical experience. The legs are not behaving normally. The stairs have become an object of negotiation. There is a medal somewhere in the house that keeps appearing in their sightline in a way that is not accidental. They have the specific tiredness of someone who did a thing that most people they know have not done and most people they know could not do, and they are still processing the full arc of it — the training months, the early miles of the race that felt manageable, the miles that did not, the moment at the finish line that they will be thinking about for a while. The gift for them is something that honors the finish or serves the recovery — not something that looks toward the next race yet, but something that acknowledges what they just did.
