When I am riding my bike I see other people exercising (either running or biking) and I just have this urge to yell out "way to go!!" or "you're doing well, keep going!". I never had this urge before joining MFP. I think it's all the encouragement I see from other members on here. I don't actually yell this out though because I think it would be strange. :P

    Yes I think the same thing when I see people :) I usually wave or say you go girl or man :) some look at me like I am strange and others smile and wave....everyone likes encouragement ....bonus : waves and smiles are catchy :):)

    I wish people would do that! Semi's on the freeway (runs alongside my trail) honk sometimes. Definitely pushes me!

    encouragement only works here....seeing someone eat a salad and telling them way to go just seems sarcastic & patronizing lol

    But I don't want to be creepy. LOL
