difficult..
have you ever worn a tutu at a race?
No one over 21 should wear a tutu or clothes with words on the butt.
<shrug> the dancer in me says otherwise
Nothing wrong with wearing a tutu...... WHILE DANCING.
What if I'm doing a run dance sort of thing? Like prancersizing?0 -
Don't tell my 5 year old he's not a real runner because he wore his Iron Man costume.

I'm doing the Hot Chocolate 15km in Vegas this weekend in full tutu and galaxy-printed tights. Come at me, I dare ya
Vegas! I'll be doing the Blood, Sweat and Beers trail marathon this weekend. I see your race is on Sunday. I'll see how I feel after mine on Saturday. I haven't run one of those Hot Chocolate races, yet. I see they don't accept race day registration, but I should know before the expo is over whether or not I could be up to a 5k in the morning... I don't even know you, but you're a bad influence.
I'll be basing my self-worth as a runner on my decision. That's the right way to do it, isn't it?0 -

joggers are the ones that find dead bodies.
I'm a "jogger"! Gah. And my late night run took me yesterday by a place I found a body about a year ago. I still freak out a bit about it. (The dead body not the jogger label.)

Do you call cycling "cycling" or "cross training"?0 -

Huh. I didn't know there was a dress code for those over the age of 21. Is it in a "Life Handbook" some where? As a 41 year old who wears shorts that have words on the butt as well as short skirts, dresses, leggings and a lot of other "young clothes" I must be breaking some sort of "rule".0 -

Well at very least you are not a runner.0 -

Possibly still a runner, but definitely not someone who can infer humour.
After so many pages, I'm surprised all of those comments didn't give it away that there was really no need for feeling hurt or snarky quotes...

Yes, it means you're neither a cyclist OR a runner
I call it biking too, except if it's on the stationary bike at the gym, in which case I prefer "torture".0 -
I thought "bikers" wore leather and chaps?0

Maybe that poster's gotten some recent flack about their clothing choices.
She should come running with me. Some of my workout clothes are 20+ years old and still going strong (not kidding). Who knew 1990's Gap was actually producing some tough-as-nails stuff?
I'll make her look and feel good even if just by comparison.
Oh, and I'll run in place at stop signs too if that will help - no red lights where I run.0 -

I wore fluoro pink leopard print tights for my half yesterday and matching shoes, so my running wardrobe isn't really ready for Fashion Week either.

IMHO wearing horrible running clothes is a right of passage. My fave running attire is my unicorn running tights. They are amazing!
ETA: I am a "real" runner. I think.0
