Thông tin: Foot racing is a popular activity in the United States. It is seen not only as a competitive sport but also as a way to exercise, to enjoy the camaraderie of like-minded people, and to donate money to a good cause. Though serious runners may spend months training to compete, other runners and walkers might not train at all. Those not competing to win might run in an effort to beat their own time or simply to enjoy the fun and exercise. (Chạy đua là một hoạt động phổ biến ở Hoa Kỳ. Nó không chỉ được coi là một môn thể thao cạnh tranh mà còn là một cách để tập thể dục, để tận hưởng tình bạn của những người cùng chí hướng và quyên góp tiền cho một mục đích chính đáng. Mặc dù những người chạy bộ nghiêm túc có thể dành nhiều tháng tập luyện để thi đấu, nhưng cũng có những người chạy bộ và đi bộ khác có thể không tập luyện gì cả. Những người không cạnh tranh để giành chiến thắng có thể chạy trong một nỗ lực để đánh bại thời gian của riêng họ hoặc chỉ đơn giản là để tận hưởng niềm vui và tập thể dục.)
