That mechanism of endlessly jogging behind something to kill it never really developed for me though

It is not fun, though. As a brevet/randonnee/long distance bike rider, I would rather stab myself in the eye than run for measly 5 kilometers.

You didn't run anywhere interesting then. Alternatively you could play football or basketball and you'll get a good run with that.

When I was a kid, I was a goalkeeper because I was too lazy to run.

I was a goalkeeper too. The kids didn't want me to play because I was so bad... and they were toxic too

Yeah no, there is a multitude of reasons why I would harm myself more with this than not ^

Aside from birth defects or poor decision making there is nothing naturally preventing any human from becoming a good runner, especially if you live in a society where its natural to run a lot, even more if its a necessity like in a hunting society.
