SO! You ask. How can a good ole' runner like me join this great little trend in coin-collecting on my runs? Read on for a little help...
1) Keen eyesight. Pennies are pretty easy to find, but coins of larger denomination often blend in with concrete.
2) Run in commercial areas. More people equal more coinage lost.
3) A good pocket. I use my shoe-laced key holder to carry my newly found fortunes.
4) Remember to STOP running when bending down to pick up your change. You'll get an 'owwie' if you don't.
5) Immunity to "The Jingle". You know what I mean? If you get lucky and find at least two cents on a run, your pockets are gonna play the "Happy Jingle of Prosperity". Warning: Even though you may love the sound, your running partner may not.
6) Beware of coins that are 'stuck' to the street. Although, you may want this coin really bad, some coins are just worth giving up on.
7) A Love for Pennies. After all, 90% of what you?re going to find on the streets are pennies. Get used to it.
8) No matter how rich you get, don't let it go to your head. Everyone will like you for who you are and not how many coins you have in your pocket.
