    You have dreams about running. Not nightmares where something's chasing you...just running and running and running. :smile:

    When you listen to music, you try to "pace it" to see if it'll work on one of your playlists.

    And your colleague gives you a funny look as they pass by your office and watch your shoulders moving back and forth! :laugh:

    You plan your work schedule around your training schedule and you go on vacation to run a race.

    if you have more heels than running shoes, you can always try to participate in stiletto runs to stop child trafficking. :)

    I always fantasized about putting on my scream costume, and chasing little kids down the street while hurling candy at their little heads, and roaring at them, LOL

    When you have to run so many miles (9 tonight) that it becomes dark out by the time you are done but you are ok with that because it is calming


    When you dont sleep the night before a 18 mile run and excitedly get up at 5 am to do it! LOL
