Running is the Worst Thing in the World
Masochism:
2. gratification gained from pain, deprivation, degradation, etc., inflicted or imposed on oneself, either as a result of one's own actions or the actions of others, esp. the tendency to seek this form of gratification.

Running:
see masochism.

I take back what I said about having respect for people who run the Boston Marathon. I think they are all a bunch of secret crazy cutters. I've been trying to get back into shape the last month or so after a couple of months of no sleep, too much food and no exercise. I don't really have time to play ball or soccer so I've taken to running a little in the morning, increasing my distance each time I run. I ran 2.0 miles today and let me tell you I hated it. It felt like 6.0 miles and it was boring. Soooooo boring. Why do people do this? Smoking is better for you than running. Anyone who has every run a marathon is not allowed around my child. You people are sick. I'm sick for doing it but I'm going to keep going because I actually felt fat around my waist for the first time ever last month.
Your wife got fat carrying and birthing your son. The least you can do is get fat in solidarity with her. That's love.

dude... you have the WRONG attitude, it's about being a drinker with a running problem. Hang out with the "cool kids" at the Marsh Post in Cambridge on Thursday nights (their winter home from October through April is Old Magoun's in Somerville). Good company, good food, cheap beer and a 2.6 mile run along the Charles is a joy.

Rachel, I think Carol and I are going for solidarity in the other direction.

Pikagirl, I can get behind 2.6 miles and some beers.

Running has never gotten easier for me. It's painful. I much prefer the alternatives, though it is the easiest form of exercise (as far as equipment and venues are concerned).
