I think they call it Yogging or maybe its jogging.

One good thing has come out of having to beat the Sun up every morning and that is the morning run. This started because.. well lets be real, nothing is open at 6:00 AM in the city.... Not even Wegmans! Mark, if you are reading this, we are expecting some big changes regarding this, so thanks from both of us in advance... I digress, this picture was taken from the running trail that is stained with my sweat and honestly, more than sweat, my tears as the Sun started to poke its head over the horizon. Usually this place is littered with other runners who are fast enough to lap you on a trail that is not a closed circuit and the apparent breeding grounds of Lance Armstrong, but was lucky enough to be able to capture this peaceful shot. It is remarkable that trails like this surround the city. People walk their dogs on them, run, ride bikes, take family walks and you never once are reminded that you are literally a wall away from the city.  It truly has become quite therapeutic and something to look forward to after the long long long long long long long long and sometimes perilous fight (what some call a "drive") with crazy drivers, crazy police, crazy traffic jams, and crazy road usage curfews into the city. Serenity now
