well said, felt exactly the same about running. It is not as exciting as football(soccer I mean), or badminton, or any other ball game. But somehow, there is something about it that keep you coming back for more. Having say that, I have not run anything more than 5k for months now. Should pick it up again. Not sure if you have read this before, but a really good book from Haruki Murakami for runner. http://www.amazon.com/What-Talk-About-When-Running/dp/030726...
