Meal Times Conversations Here at THD-Running Addiction and Other Addictions

I have meal time conversations with a couple of the residents here at THD that loves to run several times week . So the topic on running addiction was discussed. 

 Running Addiction as well as other addiction such as pornography, computer/internet and gambling (mahjong/lotteries), nicotine, opioid and going to the Casinos are also of interest to me. 

I did some search on Running Addiction and I am posting the link on all you want to know about running Addiction.  Like all addiction, compulsive running can interfere with your daily life and personal relationships. 

Running addiction is a behavioral addiction characterized by an obsessive focus on physical activity that often interferes with daily life activities and relationships. Some people are genetically predisposed to addiction, and one type of addiction can open the doorway to spiral into others.
