How about writing an article about some unsavory characters who lurk
about a 'public' NG conducting themselves in a manner which is
'affront' to the pastime which they profess to enjoy and represent?

I take it for granted that this NG provides for a representative sample
of the runner's 'attitude'.

Henceforth, I shall keep it in mind, every time that I see a jogger.
I myself have wasted enough time, herein.

Good bye.

Those characters are not interesting enough.

No. You have come across losers, not runners.

I know people who surf waves in Hawaii and smoke. I don't. Any fool
can smoke and go to the gym. It's a lot more serious when you get
held down by a big wave.

You don't have much of a story IMO unless you find some interesting
characters. Addiction is addiction.

Bending over and taking it in.

I "smoke" while running without using
tobacco or herbs :-)

On a more serious note, I often climb high mountains in
Colorado. This can take a effort equivalent running when
you are at high altitude and/or doing technical moves on rock.
I was surprised the first couple of times to see people
smoking on the summit or during rest breaks. Its not a large
number of people, but unexpected.

I also enjoy climbing. I don't know if you saw it, but there was a
whole article in Alpinist on climbers and 4:20.
