Several times it\u2019s just been a means of transportation around town &#8211; running to the store, to work, to go eat, etc.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not a runner by nature. I mean, when I exercise, I don\u2019t run. In fact, I really prefer walking or aerobics and would chose those any day over running. I have noticed that, in these dreams, I am amazed that I am actually able to run for such long distances and periods of time without struggling physically. When I\u2019ve dreamt about running in competitions, I almost always win. I\u2019ve even come from behind and sprinted to the finish.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve heard of many people who dream about running away from things or people in their dreams as a symbolism of things they\u2019re running away from in their own life, but never running as a \u201csport\u201d so-to-speak.
