      I personally love running because it’s a time where I can just let my mind wander, reflect, or just have it go blank.

      Plus it also helps when your half marathon path ended at the brewery where you have a tab.

        There are other physical activities that people enjoy that do the same exact thing. Another person mentioned rowing, but riding a bicycle is also similar. The point is, not everyone likes running, even if they do like letting their mind wander.

          Okay…and no where did I advocate that running is the only thing anyone can do.

          Dude asked for an opinion of why a person would love running and so I gave one. No need to get all defensive, take it down a notch there.

            Well, fair enough. But the other person did not ask for an opinion, quite the opposite even. They said they will never understand it. So at least to me it felt a bit like you were trying to convince the other person that running is better.
