So you were not being an ass to me, but to the entirety of the LetsRun community?

I appreciate you standing up on my behalf. I also disapprove of grammar scolds.
you own a pair of speed goggles
When you're having surgery, you have to explain beforehand that a 38 pulse is not a sign that you're going to die. It's just your normal resting rate.

LMAO that is so me...I feel like I could convince myself that Robin Williams was sexy if he managed to run a sub 4 mile. Somehow I would let it slide that he has more hair than a Buffalo.
Also, I am tempted to just turn this thread into "You know you are an Ultra marathoner/Triathlete if..."
They crash the local Starbucks at 9am on a Sunday with half tights on, vibrams, and a fuel belt (with at least 4-5 other friends dressed exactly like this).
They always have to have a number attached regarding mileage of their latest race accomplishment to either their clothing or car.
It's daytime and they have on more reflectors and neon colors than an entire construction road crew.
You wear those damn socks that reach half way to your knee with the little running men/biking men on them just in case someone missed the fact you are a runner/cyclist by the other 10 training items you are wearing.
you are always looking forward to practice
long runs are not 6 or 7 they are 10 or 11
your bedroom floor is shoes
you get into debates over positive or negative splitting
you get into debates over spikes vs flats
You've pooped yourself in public and freely tell stories about it instead of keeping it a secrete that you never tell anyone.
you think it is important to have a t-shirt, watch and shorts tan so that other runners at a race think you have run a lot.
at the beach you take your shirt off and breath in, proudly showing your ribs
you get pissed off if non-runners complain that they are sore
you get mad when people compare you with Bolt
you don't care about appearance in your daily life, but you like to dandify yourself when you go for a run
when you have an afternoon run, you won't have lunch at a restaurant
there is one food group
you measure your pulse rate to make sure it is low enough
people like to yell run forrest run at you
you like to imagine spiking them in the dick
you have an unnatural affection for spandex
you run no matter what weather
you look forward to race day
when it gets there and your on that line, you are a mess
when you hear the gun, you are fine.
...you've bought bags of peas with no intention of eating them.
...you don't need your fingers to count your pulse.
...said pulse causes ripples in a drink sitting on the arm of your chair.
...anytime you see rugged terrain in a movie, you immediately want to run there.
...you've gone to a pool, but not to swim.
...people know you're tapering because you cannot stand still or sit down for more than 10 seconds.
...you've stood in the bread aisle for about ten minutes trying to decide what you want.
...you don't know what a leftover is.
you know the world record AND world best marathon. stupid boston.

Good one. You know you're a cyclist also if you have to dress like a brightly colored superhero every time you go for a ride.

and then you realize they are born with speed, and are actually really, really, lazy.
-- a train crossing bell immediately kicks your pulse up to 150 and you have to stop yourself from sprinting.
-- you never walk up stairs, and never take them one at a time.
-- a pulled muscle is more devastating than losing your job. Can't imagine how a pro would feel.
-- your diet could sustain a small African village.
-- when you go on a trip, you plan your accommodations around the best trails and side-streets.
you would love to live outside
you have a dick in your butt
