a cult!

more precisely a running cult.

If you don't want to end up running for 30 minutes or more and finding yourself seriously thinking about 10 K runs then walk (don't run) away now!

Cult members bang on about feeling better, having more energy, even losing weight, but the reality is that you submit your will to the great Tyrant Laura and end up sacrificing as much as 2 hours a week to performing arcane rituals and listening to so-called sacred music.

save yourself
