Serious Medical Questions
I started running again today and I have a medical query for all of you who may be reading this. I have two main issues that arose when I ran this morning. The first issue is one that is very perplexing to me. The issue is that I do not enjoy running. I know tons of people who love running and use it as a way to reduce stress. For me it is quite the opposite. Running increases my stress level and I think it sucks. I wish someone could give me the actual medical explanation for why this is.
The second issue is a little more pressing seeing as how I have no idea how it got in there. Apparently I have a pygmy marmoset in my large intestine. This is the only explanation I have for the gurgling that happened at about the halfway point in the run, or in other words as far as I could get from my bathroom. It was this marmoset that forced me to do the, “I’m not gonna make it” waltz back to my house. I hate marmosets.
If there is a doctor that is reading I would really love a home cure or a prescription to get rid of my furry little companion that lives in my colon.

Your Tailbone (sacrum) containes the exit point of your parasympathetic nerves that stimulate the parastalsis (forward movement of the bowels), when you run this increases your stimulation of these nerves by the rocking motion of your tailbone. Thus the infamous “runner’s urge.”
