Why have gimmick runs sprung up out of nowhere over the past few years? I mean you suddenly got the Tough Mudder, Spartan Race, color bullshit like this replacing regular 5k/10k charity road races. Is it because yuo get to brag about it on twitter?

after all the charity runs took off in the 90s, companies realized runners tend to have tons of disposable income and a bizarre compulsion to travel halfway across the country every weekend to jog for a couple hours, and hosting races is super cheap compared to other sports
