    I'm tapering this weekend, so "only" running 12 miles.

    (Loose shirt) "Damn, my nipples are chaffing"
    (Attractive person running towards you) "slow down the pace.." lol
    (Uneven ground) "F**K!!! I rolled my ankle!"

    Things heard recently around my work or house:

    "It's just a short run tonite" (then, when asked how long) "5 ... 5 and a half." (promptly told I was nuts then asked what a "long" run would be) "On Saturdays I do 12-13...." (Promptly told that I wasn't just nuts, I was f*king nuts)

    Wife of 99clmsntgr - Are you sure you want to go play poker Friday night? We're running that 5K on Saturday morning
    99clmsntgr - Meh, the 5K's at 9:00, I'll be fine. It is *just* a 5K.

    "Hammie's a little sore, but that's what the IcyHOT is for."

    'Nah, I think I'll drop Son of 99clmsntgr off at day care then go run the bridge today. I haven't done that in a while and I enjoy it."

    Random neighbor in the 'hood: Nice shoes.
    99clmsntgr (wearing my bright green Brooks Pure Flows): Yeah, they're OK.
    Neighbor: I mean, I could see you coming from all the way down the street
    99clmsntgr: Yeah, well, these aren't even my "loud" shoes. (I have neon yellow New Balance Minimus in the closet I wear for cross-training)

    1. I can't stop thinking about the 18-miler I have to run this weekend.

    2. My favorite running snacks are sport beans, shot blocks and Honey Stingers.

    3. I'm not drinking this week so I can be hydrated and PR in the 8k on Saturday.

    4. Crap, I forgot my body glide! This is going to hurt.


    5. Time for new shoes, I've already run 500 miles in the ones I have!

    6. Do you want to get up on Saturday and run 10 miles at 7 -- AM?


    7. Vanilla Bean Gu totally tastes like cake. (Just me? Maybe...)


    8. Old Navy's "running clothes" are just not legit.

    9. You only want to run 3 miles? Okay, I'll just do four before we meet up and then run 3 with you.

    10. These $30 compression socks I just bought are awesome!

    11. This marathon fee was only $75!

    12. Dinner's at 7? Great that's plenty of time to run home from work, shower and be there.

    13. Oh, can you stop at CVS so I can pick up two bags of ice for my bath?


    14. Did you see those awesome arm sleeves that Kara Goucher was wearing? I want some!

    15. If I can just PR, I'll be happy for the rest of the year.

    "Those hills were a killer. I can't wait to do them again tomorrow!"

    My favorite is when my husband says "You're in a bad mood, go run". :)
