Runners

So I kind of have a weird question. Typically, it seems like girl runners have small but muscular arms. Like, they don't have any fat on their arms, just muscle. I was wondering if they do arm excersizes, or running gives them that look.

    runners come in all shapes...seriously....those with smaller arms are perhaps with smaller arms to begin with...

    The ones that have muscular looking arms do some sort of lifting.

    Those runner who dont but are very thin you just see their normal muscle. Running can help with a caloric deficit to help rid fat all over the body, arms lncluded.
