    Well maybe I should just start saying cager again. It certainly has fewer syllables than "automobile driver." If mutual respect doesn't matter here.



    FTR, I've never heard runners differentiate THEMSELVES from "joggers." IME it's exclusively a term used by people who ARE sitting on the couch with their tub of Edy's sneering at sweaty people in Lycra and posting vicious comments about cyclists AND "joggers" in the newspapers. Hence their perception that running is completely unimportant to those who are doing it.

    I use cager. I am a cager. I choose to drive the 1.6 miles to work rather walk or ride my bike. I carry too much crap back and forth to make walking really viable. Once upon a time I commuted on my bike, but it's not a workout and sucked up too much valuable training time.

    I do prefer the term runner to jogger, mostly because running sounds faster.
