The Funny Thing About… Fun Runs

Allergic reactions:  Shortness of breath, redness, swelling, sweating, dry mouth, shaking.
The funny thing about those symptoms is I get ALL of them while exercising.  I think I am allergic to exercise.

It got me thinking about who coined the phrase ‘Fun Run’ and thought that nobody would notice that running (for the majority of us) is not fun.  It’s like saying ‘Fun Pain’.  That will never work because it doesn’t rhyme so how about ‘leprosy ecstasy’. 
Nobody wants leprosy but what put an exciting word that rhymes next to it and people start to think “hey, I might try that”. 

What? It works for the Fun Run people doesn’t it??
