This may have been done already, but I thought it would be fun on a Friday afternoon. Love to hear others, but I'll start with a couple

-- you feel completely normal having conversations about your bodily functions.

-- you plan your night out around how many miles you have to run in the morning.

-- you own more tech shirts than dress shirts... more running tights than jeans, dress pants and skirts combined.

-- your household decor includes countless medals, bibs and pictures of you running in a myriad of weather conditions.

#HappyRunning :smile:

    I throw all my bibs away and shove the medals in the back of a drawer. I do quite happily pee outdoors and blow my nose on my gloves or my top though.

    When you enjoy running with no ulterior motives. (ie. Lose weight, get in shape, latest fad) Those are just extra benefits.

    You're an antisocial eclectic weirdo to everyone who knows you.

    Wait, doesn't that mean you're a triathlete?

    You figured out your new neighbour was a runner the first day he moved in, because you heard him get up at 5.30, then no sound for 35 minutes, then you heard him moving around again. Too much evidence. Easy.

    You got a weird gleam in your eyes when you saw him in his running gear and said 'I knew it, I knew it, just look at those legs'.

    Rain or shine, of course.
    I once ran in Phoenix (Scottsdale, actually), in the summer, in the afternoon.....Not that all runners are dumb...
