Japanese Men Now Think Running Is "Cool"


I know, I know. I'm supposed to be blogging all things running and mom. But this article crossed my desk (aka- twitter account- @MomMeRuns) and I couldn't pass it up.

Supposedly, there is a spike in sales of running shoes and apparel in Japan because middle aged men are taking over the marathons! They now find it "cool" to be so called runners. Middle aged marathon mania. LOVE IT! Hey, we understand. We're a big fan of running here too.
