Cycing on the other hand, is something I want to do. I get a kick out of being miles from home and having folks say something like "Wow! You rode a bike all the way here?!" I enjoy the greater amount of territory I can cover on a bike in a comparable amount of time as opposed to running.
Oh I still have my New Balance shoes. They add an athletic flair to my wardrobe when I must be out dressed in something other than my bike shorts.

Sounds about like me...the only time you will ever see me running is away from something and it would probably be because I didn't have a bike close by! It is about 500 yards out to my mail box from the house. I keep a bike by the back steps for the trip out and back
