Addiction to running

"Actually, becoming addicted to running can be dangerous, because it can cause one to overdo it. I would suggest that we should become addicted to the good feeling of a healthy body, the good feeling of feeling great during and after we run. Running is just one way to have those good feelings. Walking, swimming, biking are also ways of having those good feelings. Become addicted to the result not the "messenger" so to speak. Such addition is positive and has beneficial influences in our lives"

I personally hate training. I hate it when I am running, I hate the sweat, the pain, the feeling the next day, and getting out of the house to run in a hot summer day. Why do I run? For two reasons, to prove I can -lame, I know-, and because running events are fun! Running in massive groups of people is great, specially the last mile of the race when people start supporting each other and cheering each other towards the finish line. I am not talking about those assholes from Kenya :P who win the races and take all the money, I am talking about average Joes and Jills who go out there and challenge themselves and have fun at it. But running just for running, that sucks!
