You might be a runner if…(2 Comments)
1. you tell how old your shoes are by how many miles are on them
2. you spend more time researching running routes than local restaurants when traveling to a new city.
3. you know where exactly one mile from your front door is (in any direction).
4. you get jealous when you’re driving in your car and pass runners.
5. you’re excited for your next birthday because it means you’ll be in a new age group at races.
6. you get upset about injuries because they keep you from running, not because you have actually damaged your body.
7. your non-running friends consider every race you run a ‘marathon.’
8. you can add up miles and meters in your head, any other math you need a calculator.
9. you get an invitation to a wedding and you automatically think about what race the date will conflict with.
10. Ibuprofen is your recreational drug of choice
This website has taken on a definite gender bias.
Therefore I will continue to bring up gross and immature topics so the male perspective is represented.
11. You have mastered the “one nostril at a time”
nose blow without having to slow down.
12. Mid run, you had to rip up the old race shirt
you were wearing and use it as TP
13. You frequently watch the video of Steve
Prefontaine running in Munich and hope that
somehow this time it will end differently.
