You do not override start() method either way. If you extend Thread, you override run() and if you implement Runnable, you implement run() method.

1. Do not call run() explicitly. It does not spawn a new Thread. It will then be treated as a normal method call and will be run in the same Thread.
2. Do not override start() method. Leave it alone!. Just call it on the Thread object to spawn a new Thread.
