June 01 is National Running Day, at least in the US. To learn more go to http://www.runningday.org/site/.

I thought I would 'borrow' an idea on their site which is to have fellow joggers, woggers, runners, sprinters, dashers fill in the blank to the sentence below. Share your reasons, inspirations, etc. for running.


I RUN _____________.


Here, I'll start. Sorry, not very original...

I RUN very slowly.
I RUN to be outdoors.
I RUN for FUN.
