“My friends like to tell me that they hate running. I respond with, ‘No, you don’t. You hate how out of shape you are, which you tend to feel most when you’re running.’ That usually shuts them up. My point is, no one who’s run often enough to be fairly in shape, hates running. It’s just not possible.”

Nope. I hate running.

I like my body. I don’t need it to be different before my preferences count.

I’ve always hated running. Even when I was in good enough shape I could walk or cycle pretty much indefinitely. It’s just never been my thing. Has nothing to do with being out of shape.

(Of course these days I don’t know if I could physically run if I tried. The closest I seem to get is kind of a fast walk. Can’t hop on one foot anymore either. Of course it’s probably good I can’t run because I’m pretty sure it could kill me or at least seriously fuck up my body. And that’s called having a serious stamina-related disability.)

    “Nobody who runs a lot hates running” ‘cause if they hated it they wouldn’t do it.
