    My friend ran... after a long time of no running...

    They found his body along a country road. I wish I could run but I might have the same fate. Wonderful idea for a contest! Running! I run in my mind.

    Running's one of my favorite activities, and I don't get to do it nearly enough.
    For me, in case you were wondering, running isn't about speed or time or fitness, though all of those improve when you run. It's about finding that peace.
