Runner's Wisdom

Running is a miracle drug. It treats obesity, sleepy libidos, depression, addiction, boredom, anxiety, and writers block. I’d like to see a patient walk into Footlocker with a prescription for trail runners. Use five times a week for fast, effective relief.


There is a certain brand of wisdom that only a runner attains. Can you see it on their faces while you wait for a light to turn green? Their expression: a happy marriage between Bliss and Determination. Running is Meditation’s aggressive sexy cousin. Walkers dismiss this wisdom as a “runner’s high” – simply resulting from a rush of endorphins.


But that’s okay.  Just remember to yield for us.
