        I’ll never understand why anyone enjoys running. I absolutely hate it and feel terrible after running. I ran every day for 22 years (former military) and hated every single day.

        I prefer rowing, that is actually fun.

          I personally love running because it’s a time where I can just let my mind wander, reflect, or just have it go blank.

          Plus it also helps when your half marathon path ended at the brewery where you have a tab.

            There are other physical activities that people enjoy that do the same exact thing. Another person mentioned rowing, but riding a bicycle is also similar. The point is, not everyone likes running, even if they do like letting their mind wander.

              Okay…and no where did I advocate that running is the only thing anyone can do.

              Dude asked for an opinion of why a person would love running and so I gave one. No need to get all defensive, take it down a notch there.

      This screams I’m a complete moron that can’t understand or have a intellectual discussion over a topic so I’ll just do a dumbass ad hominem attack.
