    Why do I share my runs? Because every time I do, someone replies "Wasn't going to run today but b/c of that tweet I'm going out now!"

        @avantgame I was going to run today, but it's 20 degrees w/20 mph wind so I wimped out. But I love that you share. It keeps it on my radar.

        @avantgame for me that is the social part of a gamified style experience. Get and give support without agenda.
