    How Much Does Running Rule Your Life?
    You checked off 40 out of 50 on this list!

    Wow. You have a problem. Running completely controls your life. I guess in the grand scheme of things, being addicted to running is a good problem to have, but dang. You’re probably reading this on a treadmill right now, you psychopath.

    Boy do I disagree with this quiz. Half the questions were cute and snarky but certainly don't describe obsession with running. I scored in the 20's because I never need to convince myself to run. I need to convince myself not to so I don't injure myself. I've never thought "this is hard". My only complaint is "Done already?" I also run in regular cloths and often bare feet without caring if it's socially acceptable. It's running so :P.

    If running takes motivation, you have a healthy relationship with it. If it's compulsive and you can't run far enough to satisfy your cravings, welcome to my club.

    Only 12/50... I have only been running for 5 months, so no snow yet but might check it in the next 2 months for sure.

    Some of those fantasies have potential... If you see someone running full out and yelling "BEEEAAAAAR!!!!" in the next few days, well, that's me! :laugh:

    I checked 8 of 50 and it said I had a healthy relationship... meanwhile I don't agree. I'm try trying to make myself like it :S I have only had one fun run so far (my last one, it was so good).

    I scored 17 but it should have been higher. I don't usually have to "trick" myself to run but I do to KEEP running when it doesn't start out well. Many of these were plain silly. Where are:

    You have dreams about running and winning a race
    You have nightmares about running naked/poorly/the wrong way
    You own more sport bras than regular bras
    You own more pairs of running shoes than any other kind of shoe
    You have several running outfits that match your shoes

    Congratulations! You have a perfectly healthy relationship to running. Be thankful the cold stiff fingers of running aren’t clamped around your still-beating heart…for now.

    It could turn into a very unhealthy relationship though.........:bigsmile:

    I got a 31. I think this is just a cutsy kind of thing. Not something I'd take serious.

    I know I have a problem because my entire day is around how to fit in more running time. Sometimes I think, if I didn't get married and have kids, I'd have more time to run. But I'm mostly kidding.... mostly. :blushing:
