And I totally get it.....and I'm not even saying it's not partial bullshit....technically....

It's my hobby though... That's the thing... No, i'm not training for olympics...but I DO set personal goals & several races yearly and I train for those. And it feels good to meet those goals and get personal records because...really...at this age what OTHER kinda frivolous shit can I realistically be competitive at and feel some sense of accomplishment with relative ease and low cost of entry? In general, running is a fairly cheap hobby... Cat's out here dropping grands on golf clubs and shit....monthly gym memberships....etc.... I spend like...i dunno...$200 - $400 per year on running gear (shoes, socks, race entries)....
I don't even really have that many running shoes when I think about it....
3 pairs of Mizuno's spanning 4 years in age... 2 pairs of Saucony's and now 2 pairs of Nikes
