Are Runners More Attractive People?

Of course they are.  Just look at this sexy picture of me.  You don’t look like that not being a runner.  Runners are more fit than the general population; therefore they have more attractive bodies.  However, there are many other things that determine how attractive people are other than body shape.  So are runners really attractive?

Most fair skinned people want to be more tan.  Runners do it outside, so they are more susceptible to the sun and darkening their hue.  Therefore, fair skinned runners become more attractive than the general fair-skinned population.  Being fair is so not hot.

Runners often shower more than non-runners.  I’m predominantly an evening runner so I have to shower twice a day.  I haven’t seen any negative effects to my skin but studies have shown that the more you wash your hair the more likely it is to become weak or frayed.  Runners run the risk of having less attractive hair.  At least our skin is silky smooth though!  Oh yeah.

Running is a great stress reliever which usually gives runners a better attitude and outlook on life than the non-running population.  Attitude and a positive outlook can be very important to attraction.  It’s like Vincent Vega in ‘Pulp Fiction’ says when asked why he doesn’t eat pig, “Pig’s a filthy animal. I don’t dig on filthy animals.”  Jules Winnfield, “Dog’s a filthy animal.”  Vincent Vega, “Dogs got a personality.  Personality goes a long way.”  Well there you have it.  Runner’s can be filthy and still be attractive.  Forget about showering twice a day!

Runners are usually people that like to set goals and strive to accomplish them.  You know what other types of people set goals and work hard to accomplish them?  Successful people.  Success is so hot.  Just look at Donald Trump and then look at his wife.  Exactly.

So if you want to become more attractive then start running.  Or just sit provocatively in front of a fireplace like I do.  60% of the time it works all the time.  Oh yeah.
