What is the use of running?

Question

Some People said that they are running for HIV or they are running for the poor ppls and so on I don’ get the point

Answer 1

some people run because they want to, some because they have to. but a lot of people i know join those marathons "race for the cure" just because they want to help sick children or women with breast cancer.

Answer 2

When a person joins a race for a cure for HIV or Cancer or the Homeless, the money they pay to enter the race (usually $25) and the pledge money they collect from family and friends (usually a little money, like a dollar per mile) goes to the organization hosting the race (ie, susan komen foundation, NAACP, Mayo Clinic, etc.)

Answer 3

The point is someone talks you into it, you do it even though you don't want to, and it helps people. Just think of it as a personal conquest (I know it sucks but it does help people, if you are in shape). It sucks, but if your friend wants you to do it, just do it. I guess it helps people. It sucks at first but you look like a hero at the end of the day.

Answer 4

It's feel good stuff to bring attention to the cause. They get people to sponsor them to raise money and then a lot of people see the event.

Answer 5

if you are referring to charitable races... i don't know, really.

if you put it that way, what is the use of charitable parties? it takes a lot of money to organize such a party - money that could be used for charity. and whoever wants to be charitable can donate without going to a party, right?

apparently some people need to be convinced to be charitable. and so there are parties - races - concerts - whatever you can think of.

Answer 6

it is nice for our health, to circulate blood well
