Any runners here?

just getting the bug again. former cross country guy but got out of it. Now ready to get back in form.

Running 3-4 times a week trying to get the distance up.

No, but I'm going to try my best to get into it just to build up some endurance, work off a few pounds, and stay healthy.

I know it sounds funny (especially since I don't currently run), but I've started barefoot running. It works the hell out of your calves, and I like the feel off it more.

I try and run every night with my two dogs, both of them mutts and high energy. I don't have a big yard so after work and after the gym I take them at night. Pretty soon I'm going to start going in the mornings too before work. What got me into it/kept me into it is the iPhone map "iMapMyRun" because it tracks all your runs by GPS and gives you a bunch of stats on them and it's cool to see the improvement in distance and time.

No, but I want to be. After football practice is done, I'm going to start running and working out. Would love to be able to run in my first 5K next spring.

I know someone who has them and loves them.

I run pretty much everyday, but I cheat. Treadmill, in front of the TV with the fan on high.

I already have a pair -- a friend hooked me up with a good deal on them. I do like them. Like I said, I'm no runner and I'm just getting into it. But after running in them several times, I'm starting to naturally run in typical "barefoot" fashion -- on the balls of my feet. I'm enjoying it.

I'm a swimmer. Not a fan of running.

running is one of the worst hobbies to get anyway....very hard on the body....like Jake says...hop in the pool, or get a bike.

It's is def. hard on your body. I do like to bike and do realize I won't be able to run forever.

I don't run, but I get the same experience by walking upstairs to my bedroom to get a fresh pack of smokes. So I know what you're talking about.
