You Know You're a Runner When…

By , About.com Guide   July 17, 2011

Follow me on:

Runners definitely share special bonds and sometimes have traits, habits, or idiosyncrasies that only other runners can understand. If you're a runner, you may be able to relate to or appreciate some of these descriptions. You know you're a runner when....

  • you have dreams about showing up to a race late or not wearing any clothes.
  • you've used an old race T-shirt to wash your car, dust furniture, or clean something else.
  • you know where exactly one mile from your front door is (in any direction).
  • your only recent photos of you alone are race photos.
  • you're not embarrassed to wear spandex.
  • you're always hungry.
  • you no longer hate port-a-johns. In fact, you can think of a few times when you've been very happy to see one.
