I agree that there is something intuitively wrong about stressing your heart, lungs, legs, and feet on daily punishing runs in preparation for some meaningless marathon. We've all seen these people running around town in the morning or evening with a grim determination in all kinds of weather. There is nothing to admire about the "joggers," in my view. They seem addicted to a high they get when they run, supposedly. They need counseling.

They're all going to become a real fiscal drag on our health care system when they hit their 60's.

So tell me, how does one become so wise to espouse that omniscient view, oh great one?
How can we, the great unwashed, be as urbane and erudite as you?
Please enlighten us, what are the secrets to your success and happiness?
