Really the best thing two passing cars can do when going by a runner is have the car going toward the runner speed up, as the one going by the runner slows down. This is the opposite of what most cars do though, because it is sort of counter intuitive. Doing it the way I propose works with the speed of the runner, and moves the pass point further away from them.
At some point, someone will yell "Run, Forrest" to you.
A headwind in a track race that blows in a 400 meter ellipse pattern.
An out and back with rolling hills that seems to be uphill both ways.
You are out running and are about to pass someone who is walking, running, etc., and they are on the other side of the path from you. They look back, see you, and move across the path to get in your way.
The rain storm that starts when you begin your run and ends when you finish.

HAHA I love this thread, everything that has been posted I can relate to. Here are some of my observations...
-Running down the road to a sharp blind turn for the drivers. You hear no cars until you are at the turn.
-You go to the high school to do a track workout. Nobody is there and its awesome. You finish your 20 min warmup. You walk over to the starting line and three cars pull up and they all get out and walk in lane 1 the whole time.
-No matter what loop you run there will be a constant wind right in your face.
-You get to a four way intersection and ten cars pull up to it from every direction as soon as you get there.
despite your best attempts at applying body glide, your nipples will chafe
You just keep getting injured. Over, and over.
Also, you have a great season of training until you bomb your peak race.
No matter how much money you pay your idiot coach, you'll never break XX. The information is available - don't pay someone to give it to you.
The one day you give in and decide run on a treadmill, every treadmill is in use by hobbby joggers.
You get pissed and waste a lot more time going home, getting dressed, and going through with the run outside.
Despite what you read on running message boards, an Ironman is much more difficult than a marathon.
When you're 17 you can run 4:20. When you're 25 you can run . . . 4:20.
The moment you start feeling confident about your training and excited to race, you get injured.
What distance?
7 days out from your goal race, you'll wake up with a stuffed up nose.
