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.

Excellent post. Runners are also more attractive because we have awesome legs. And don’t even get me started on the tanlines! We women know how to sport the racerback tanlines. Major attractiveness!
This is, by far, the dumbest article I have read on running.
Chanthana you are so right. Racerback tanlines are hot!
Maggie, that was, by far, the best comment ever made on this blog about all things running. Please let us know of any subjects you would like us to discuss!
I mean Maggie, you had to have loved the picture!
I run 5-6 miles every morning (6 days a week) and I get honked at all the time (usually 3-4 honks PER run.) What’s interesting, is that I’m no skinny waif – I’m 5’2 and 150 pounds. But what is unusual about me is my body shape is incredibly porportioned and I have an unusual amount of leg – which is nearly all muscle (got that verified just last week with an ultra sound for unrelated medical reasons).
“You’re a runner – aren’t you?” she asked me during the ultrasound. It took her 30 minutes to do what should have been a 10-15 min. ultra sound on ONE leg – due to all my muscle. She said she rarely sees that much muscle in someone my size (5’2) in the legs ….. unless they are exercise enthusiasts – usually runners.
She made my day – heck – my YEAR!!!
So are runners attractive – you betcha!! (loved you photo!!)
