I'm not a runner yet, but a jogger. Partly for the reasons others listed, but mostly I jog because I love the boost it gives to my self esteem. I still struggle with inner demons from time to time, but the progress of going longer and the sense of accomplishment is so satisfying to my soul.0

Runner girls have nice butts and legs (or so say the men I know)

-releases stress

That poor lady needs a better bra. Owie. She'd be a good workout buddy, though. She's not only faster on the uptake than her friend, she pushes her toward safety before she takes off running.0 -
-I like having a healthy cardiovascular system
-I like having a low resting heart rate
-I like burning 14-18 calories per minute
-When I am in shape to run long distances, I am in shape to do everything else
-I like exercising outside
-I like running shoes, running socks, compression sleeves, running sunglasses, dry-fit tech fiber shorts and shirts, smart phone running apps, heart rate monitors with Bluetooth capabilities, music playlists, and headphones
-I like the feeling of lining up in the middle of thousands of people a few minutes before a race starts
-I like being labeled as a "runner", because they are generally a great group of people
-Running and waddling are mutually exclusive tendencies.0 -
