I'm not a runner by nature. I like the idea of running because it's so simple and you can do it anywhere. However I can't run more than 20-30 mins. It's not my physical condition that's the problem. It's just I have such a short attention span for running. I'd rather find a fun activity to stay active such as competitive eating (hey it's a sport) than endure the monotany of pounding the pavement.
So I have to give major props to anyone that can run any sort of long distance race. Imagine doing it in a Spongbob Square Pants costume and not finish anywhere close to last. You can barely see, it's gotta be hot, and it's cumbersome. At least you can laugh at all the slow people you pass without getting caught.
See the man who lives in a pinnapple under the sea running at a recent local 10K (about 6 miles) race here, here, and here.
