Running Hollywood's boulevards are studded with sweaty celebrity couples like Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake, and Naomi Watts and Live Schreiber who like to run or walk together every morning. Says Raghu Joshi, 53, "We might be busy throughout the day, but my wife and I like to walk for an hour together every morning and it is that one time of the day when we can talk at leisure."
