I work at Langley, right? I went out on this project constructing a surveillance site for spying on these random communists in some South American country I've never heard of (because of chauvinism).
The problem is that the landlord for this site was a kind and funny older gentleman. He has these rugged hands that revealed him as someone who labored all his life and he had a story to match. He had professional qualifications for all the utilities and construction. He was involved in getting the road to the site paved. He came around with his forklift to lift stuff, he was there when we told him how much electricity our RADAR and X-rays needed. He was there when they needed to plug the computers into the ceiling with a ladder-vehicle.
Do I need to face the wall because I was actually a capitalist the entire time? The man clearly labored so he clearly deserves some fruits. Is it more about the station of private land ownership than the person? How could a just society look at him and make him the subject of a struggle session?
It's not just hedonistic because you're taking... steps to improve your health. I'm proud of you for doing it, comrade. You could also consider diversifying your workout. You could incorporate HIIT, hill sprints, stairs, and trail running. You could even mix in swimming, biking, rowing, or a ladder machine if any of that's available to you. The running is doing more to serve you than making you good at running.
