I think it has gained popularity due to good marketing. More people join and get their friends to join in and train together. Some people also take it as a persona challenge or even as a goal for them to train for and to get fit.
I personally won’t join it as I don’t see why I should pay to run! I also lack the discipline to train for such long distances[LOL]
I used to run to stay fit but less so now due to work commitments. Also, with older age, im more worried about wearing out my knees prematurely and having to have knee replacements at a younger age.

Yes, I totally agree. Running can cause significant damage to the knees. You could try swimming instead. Always make sure to protect yourself during exercise! 🏃♂️💪🏊♀️🦵
