That is one thing I noticed on a recent trip to Europe, there weren't that many joggers. In most major cities on the US, especially in parks and scenic places, you'll see a fair amount of joggers, but didn't really see any in Europe besides barcelona.

It seems in America were either training for a marathon or a hot dog eating competition.

    That's not really true. I'm in Europe and saw around 5 joggers on my way to work this morning. I see multiple packs of twenty going past my house at weekends 

    The big difference between the US and Europe is probably that joggers are happier running near their houses in Europe and don't feel the need to drive to a designated safe space for daily training. This makes the big parks a bit emptier.
