Long Distance Running

Are any of you into long distance running? Either marathon style or just for exercise / recreation?

What are your Sun, Rising and Mars signs? (Major aspects if applicable?)

Curious to see how many Sagittarians / Sag risers or Sag dominants pop up here. Possibly Saturn / Mars people.

It is all about the fire placements. Normally Sag. Make good runners... they don't seem to be winded easy during any physical challenge.

However running normally creates problems with knees... Believe me you want to walk when you are older so make sure if you run always have good shoes, build up your distance over time, eat right because you burn calories like butter.

See fire signs don't work out to look pretty... We do it because if feels so dam good 🙂

Sorry, but astrology doesn't dictate physiology, as much as you think only Sags have major endurance.

Seriously, some of you guys take astrology way too far. :/

I can definitely belive the bit about running because it feels good. I know I can get a great body high out of it myself. A lot of injuries can be avoided by changing foot strike and posture though, and also ditching shoes entirely... Funny enough, the more expensive running shoes also come with a higher statsitical rate of injury.

Recently developed a fascination with the minimalist running movement and was just curious if the astro stereotypes hold up here.

You may have to run away from all the guys chasing you if you get to fit now... lol

Yes you are right... Virgo shows her wit. 😉

What's considered long distance running?

On the easy side of things, probably 10 miles +.

Not true. If my mars is a fire sign, trines my moon and conjuncts my penis, I can be a great runner.

Roflmao!

Fire signs have the mind for running... It is actually consider a form of meditation which suits fire signs very well. Ms. TMV just has some outstanding placements in this department.

I would run more but honestly I am saving my knees played to many sports already and became a yoga convert. I still miss it though and it will never quite be the same.

I am not doing long distances.....yet. Just started running. I have wanted to for years. My problem, I am a Taurus so I love to eat and curl up on the couch. Still, I am sag rising and Leo moon. Seems my fire has finally won. I thought I would find running difficult and miserable at first, but I love it!!!

Everybody has their kink lol.

So far the fire sign mythos appears to be holding up. Any watery people enjoy running or endurance type physical activity?

...then I walked in the room.

Sag rising, Aries Moon, Aries Mars, Fire dominant.

...I hate long distance running. Hated it in school, sprints were more my style as well as contact sports.

Marathons look like the epitome of boredom to me.

I have a Sag Moon stallion.

Was ranked nationally in 800 and 1500m.
I do 5ks and 10ks.

I've done a half marathon, but I prefer 10ks.
