"If you have the fire, run..." -John Climacus
I've got a fever...
On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.

First off what kind of interests, do you have? I have done audiobooks either ripped from my collection or from libraries :-). For me, non-fiction seems easier to digest while on runs. Most of the material I've listened to was on personal finance, political jibber jab, and ethics.

I do. I listen to "college" classes from the Teaching Company -- all the classes I should have taken in college for the sheer joy of learning. I especially listen to them on the treadmill where I have about a mile before I'm bored to tears but I also listen to them running through my neighborhood where there's not a lot to see/listen to. It helps keep me going and forget the kniggling ouches as I start running and boredom of doing my neighborhood circuit for the 2nd or 3d time. Karyn
