You should only find that comic strip offensive, if you are stupid enough to go out jogging in the snow, half-naked, and you happen to be white.
Otherwise, you too can laugh at that crazy white guy.
Then they should have said the guy was crazy for what he was doing, not crazy because he is white.
That is why this is racist. It was all about RACE, not whether the guy is nuts for running in the winter.
For those who never did, the cold weather can allow you to run longer because you dont overheat.
it does take longer to warm up, but you can run faster while cooler, and the feeling of the crisper air is awsome!
That is another reason people go skiing, the crisp air feels great.
