Jogging is practice for how humans killed pretty much all the megafauna in the world: exhaustion hunting.

Also fire probably. Lots and lots of fire

I think scaring them over Cliff sides came into okay as well, though you aren't wrong.

Animals understand play. Although not sure where the ball is.

I cannot stop laughing 😂

Personally I think humans run because they are a species with enough cognitive abilities to be masochists

As someone who started running last year because it's supposedly "good for you", I'm inclined to agree lol

It's because we grew out of having to do physical work 8-12 hours every day just to stay alive.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

I actually love physical work! I just hate running 😆

I also get confused when I see people jogging, don't they know lounging around eating snacks is way more fun?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

I can't see why anyone would down vote

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

Human zoomies feel great :)

My favorite is to shout out, 'What are you running from!' when people jog by.

"Therapy was also an option"
