Today's definition was suggested by Jabberwocky.
Thank you Jabberwocky! ~ James

Lots of similar thinking on this one.

Hey ErWenn, The way I see it there are two groups of words here. Those who like runners:Easystriders, Pedoton, Marathrong, and your Jogstalt. And those who don't: Stompede, Jogmob, Syncrunidiots, Stampedestrian, and the Shoekluxklan! Overall -- very creative!
