How horrible for his family. RIP.

I'm not what you would call a runner, but usually try to run between 6 and 15 miles a week as part of the rest of my work outs. I run outside whenever the weather is nice, and on the treadmill other times (that is how you know I am not a real runner). But, I am pretty much dependent on my MP3 player for working out, including running. Part of the deal is to insulate my mind from everything else except the task at hand.

I don't know if I would classify it as stupid, but that is how I roll. As a matter of fact I am about to go for a run (with my ear-buds in like an idiot) in a few minutes.
