Photographer Comments: The man "jogging" in this photograph would be more aptly described as shuffling. He was barely raising his running shoes off the ground and was moving approximately 2 miles an hour down the path. It was sort of bizarre, truth be told. Maybe it's a special type of exercise that I'm not aware of (which wouldn't surprise me).
