    Anywhere from not at all to a few miles, depending on who
    I'm with at the time.

    How far...do you have to run to be happy?

    Far enough to "fill the unforgiving minute with 60 seconds'
    worth of distance run."

    Not 42? Douglas said the answer was 42 and I believe him.

    The question was not related to companions nor to any
    particular place or time. For a fan of the scientific
    method, you sure do seem averse to answering a simple
    question in a direct manner.

    I *knew* I could depend on you for an intelligent answer.

    If I'm doing a longer-type run, I find (as many do) I fall
    into agroove about 35 - 40 minutes into it. I guess you
    could call this "happy". It certainly feels great.

    cheers,

    With apologies to Rudyard Kipling...

    Yeah, I knew that. Point is, how many other rec.runners did?

    We really must conduct a survey on the educational
    attainments of this band of brothers, though I suspect that
    most will live on the wrong side of the bell shaped curve.

    Does that sound elitist? Sorry, I'm actually an inclusive-sort-of-
    guy at heart.

    There's an old story about the philosophy department at the
    university of Melbourne where I studied for my undergraduate
    degree (I don't know if it's truth or legend). The
    philosophy department had apparently given identical
    questions on an exam paper in consecutive years, and were
    called on it.

    Their response was "yes, but the answers are different
    this year".

    Not averse, just lazy.

    Oh, I'd bet that many runners have found some inspiration
    from "If." It's the sort of thing that would generally
    appeal to people who reject the value of sitting on their
    butt marking time. Or, is that your point?

    See? If I let you ramble for a while you get there in
    the end :-)
