He's not a big fan of running

Jeff Egnaczyk has taken up running to try to burn off some of the fat that comes after two months of no excercise and lots of food (new fatherhood'll do that). He hates it:

... 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. ...

Solidarity

I recently resumed running after almost a year of being cooped up in apartment.

I still *look* fit, but when I jog, I'm shuffling along, panting, sheets of sweat splashing off my body. Pretty much every Boston runner blows past me, effortlessly, and with foreheads so dry that they should be using moisturizer.

Totally in agreement

I never was able to achieve the "runner's high". I hated going out running from the minute I put on my shorts 'til I hit the showers, after.

I ran the marathon, even though I hated it (twice), so that I could STOP running and say, "Oh, I used to run ..."

Hate it.
