Flunning?

From the London Daily Telegraph:

One in ten joggers said that they have sex at least once a day and three per cent of joggers said they have sex twice a day.

Amongst non-runners one in four (25 per cent) said they had sex once a month or less.

The survey, which questioned 1,000 runners and 1,000 non-runners, also found that one in ten male runners confessed to thinking about sex while exercising.

In comparison, only five per cent of woman said they think about sex while running and almost half spend their time thinking about how the exercise is benefitting them.

The poll, carried out for healthcare charity Sue Ryder Care, also found that a quarter of joggers admitted going running to help them flirt with the opposite sex in a trend branded ‘flunning’.

More than a third said they have managed to strike up a conversation with someone of the opposite sex while running.

The survey sponsor said there are almost 600,000 “flunners” in the UK and ”It’s a great opportunity for single runners to get out there and find their lovematch.”

I’m Single-Task Bob. The only thing I can think about while running is running. I’m guessing those who flirt while running aren’t very good at either. And will my man card be revoked if I suggest you just let the poor women run? If I catch you flunning with my wife I will flun you up, big time.

I did learn, however, that three percent of joggers are lying.

Ladies! Another Reason to Choose Running Over Cycling

Believe it or not, my usual news sources do not include the Female Urology & Urogynecology blog, but it’s amazing what you can turn up with a keyword search for “runners.” In this case, I discovered news of a study that compared women competitive cyclists with women runners. It determined the cyclists have a “decrease in genital sensation.”

What’s also amazing about the Internet is what you can turn up if you keep digging. For example, this groundbreaking new study is actually from November 2006 – so if you’re counting on the Female Urology blog for current news, you’re waaaay behind the information power curve.

Additionally, I learned that male cyclists have been suffering from numb nuts for years – the problem even prompted a series of recommendations from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health.

All of which suggests a new TV ad campaign for U.S.A. Track & Field: “Running: It’s a Genital Sensation!”
