Running for me is pretty boring, I never have liked it even when I was an OK runner.  I had a GF for a while who was a runner and I'd run with her often as not.  She'd get made because I could outrun her with fairly minimal effort, mostly because I was 6'4" and 180 pounds, I wish I was closer to that now.
I only run some now because of baseball.  It's my incentive.
I'm also "on the wagon" now except weekends, and travel.  I managed no alcohol last week pretty well until last night when I had some.  I'm hoping to drop some weight and save some money but we have a lot of travel upcoming.
