I was just wondering why so many people who run are obnoxious? People who are obnoxious are generally afraid of something--not always though. Many runners here are obnoxious to me and it took me a long time to figure that out. Well, now that I have indentified your mental illness--what have you got to say for yourselve? Why do you think that running and being obnoxious goes hand in hand? Is it fear? I don't know myself. I am just glad that I am no longer a runner.
