RUN 176 - "Run Forest Run..."

I can't recall how many times some random pedestrian has spoken these three words to me as i'm running.  Usually through a city on a day which most other people might choose not to run, i think it's a compliment, at least thats the way i choose to take it.  People don't question cyclists in the same way, is it that the perceived effort of running is greater and perhaps unobtainable? not necessarily true; a 3 mile run home is perhaps as challenging as a 6/7mile bike ride.  People often don't understand why we run, especially with a backpack home from work... why not take a bus or a train?  i'm not sure why, maybe its because i know i can, or i want to find out if i can.  [5.0m-42:27-08:29/m]
