# One should not run or even take big steps on [[Shabbat]]. <ref> Rama 301:1, Shemirat [[Shabbat]] KeHilchata 29:4 </ref>
# See [[Recreation#Running]].
# One may run because of the rain, a fear, or another extreme need. <ref>Shemirat [[Shabbat]] KeHilchata 29:5. Midrash Rabba (Devarim 18) implies that one shouldn't run on Shabbat even because of the rain. Shevet Halevi 1:58 explains that the reason running is general forbidden unless it is a mitzvah is because someone who is running looks like he is doing something for his personal gain and business as he would do during the week. However, if he's caught in the rain it is permitted to run since it is evident that one is doing so for a specific permitted purpose.</ref>
