Why must we question the motives of everyone on this planet?

This is the longest distance I have run in a little over 2 years. In fact, I didn't run for 2 years because of some personal issues I've been battling. I'm just now getting back in the groove and it is so much harder than I ever thought it would be. The first few steps out the door are painful - I'm only 36 and not overweight (ok, maybe a little bit).

I used to run 6 miles per day and do 10-12 on Saturdays. In spite of how some of you on the board may feel, and as much as I hate it, I need this. I need the solitude, the discipline, the challenge, the sweat, and the improvements that will eventually come as I keep at it. I'm not out setting any records, but I try to improve on my distance and time. I don't have a sticker on my car (other than the oval Y). When someone asks if I run, my typical response is "you'd never guess, would you?" In spite of how slow I run, I've never been passed. Usually nobody else is awake when I'm on the road/path. I'm not rich - I sacrifice sleep.

Let's try to stop judging everyone. There is a good reason that the final judgment is left for the Lord - we are all imperfect morons.
