Joggers-everyone who exercises really-but joggers especially, confuse me. I understand the drive to be healthy and I get wanting to be attractive and feel like you look good...but seriously? I look up to them for their drive but their motivation is a mystery to me. I've tried to stay in relatively good shape, but whenever I work out I can't get the thought “WHY AM I DOING THIS??” out of my head.





Furthermore it's a completely self-contained activity, Am I really going to push myself through however many miles of running so maybe next time I'll be able to...run better? Or lift weights so maybe I can lift more weight next time? That's more work! Ha, no thank you. Jogging has absolutely no practical use, say you are getting mugged, are you going to stop everything and say “Hold on, see that hill 5 miles away? If you can get there before I do you can have my wallet, GO!” Jogging is no good for transportation either, unless you enjoy leaving for work at 4 AM and showing up sweaty and exhausted. For me, cars and guns eliminated every use I could possibly have for running.
