What do you guys think of when you run? I find it too boring.

i started running on a treadmill in the gym this year
watched all seasons of mcgyver on myphone, now thinking of downloading coursera classes

I listen to podcasts or audiobooks

I try to use upbeat music to keep me going and it works for about a half hour. It's just too boring. I tried watching whatever shit was on the TV at the gym but it's football season and I have no interest in watching soorts so I usually get bored and go lift.

I hate running and static cardio, I started doing judo and boxing with some friends that do mma. Mostly we just do some boxing and grappling and before you know it you've been sweating your ass off for 2 hours.

Good idea, I'll try that too.

I started listening to Chicago drill music when I run. It definitely makes me want to go harder since it's very hype and aggressive. It's also good background music for playing video games to, but I don't play vidya anymore.

I always thought it was more like a question, like " you betrayed me also Brutus?"

>>34838031
Is this really such a big deal to some people?

The few times it's happened to me, I just smile and laugh it off, I don't see it as much more than a little mistake.

but that's acceptable?

I like trail running. Find a forest preserve with some long trails and just get lost with my thoughts or music. If you find running boring find a forest close by and do this.

I think about things that are happening in my life

I change my path as often as I can, or I just stop in a parking lot and do sprints instead.

Or I go to the park that has a nature trail and run that instead, cause it has hills and roots and ruts to jump over.

I'm more training to do mud runs so it works for me.

I put 25 pop songs on repeat. Demi Lovato, etc.

I listen to live sets from really hype edm dj's. Once my heart rate gets up and I kind of forget i'm running it sort of feels like I'm at the show raging. Nothing like skrillex screaming in your ears to get hyped and then dropping some ridiculous brostep shit

All you fuckers are doing it wrong.

Running is the perfect time to think about things and get to know yourself, it's meditative. You get going at a certain pace and there's a rhythm to your movement and breathing. It's not something you should want to distract yourself from.
Also, treadmills suck and you should avoid them.

I use an elliptical machine because my knees are complete shit. I just plug in my headphones and watch ESPN or the news.

You're not running fast enough if you have enough energy to complain you're bored.

>>34838031
If you're "running" for a whole hour, try actually running
