Your 2 mile time is the same as your SAT score

Good thing I wasn't particularly fast in high school.

Haha!

...you know it's possible to spit at the ground and have it end up in your eye.

i just noticed that this thread is 10 years old..

- your 10k time is faster than the majority of your friends mile time

- you can't even name more than 5 of the nations politicians, celebrities, other sport stars, famous figures, etc but you can name at least the top 100 runners of all time

- you recognize that track and road running have different purposes

- you'll run in 2 feet of snow before you run on the treadmill or indoor track

- people you know think you are by far the cheapest person out there (Seems to be the majority of letsrun)

... You've been running for about 6 months and this thread is becoming a list of goals.

you are fat lazy and old but still tell yourself you are going to get up for a morning run every night before you go to bed... and you never do...and this has been continuing for the last 5 years.

Seriously! I don't eat pizza, but I sure bring a heck of a lot more than an apple to school!

...If you've ever gotten a detention for getting up to use the restroom when you weren't supposed to.

... If you have (or ever considered) running your age in miles for your birthday.

... If you have developed a strong hatred toward automobiles

... If you have ever scowled at parents for telling their children to, "Move to the side to let the jogger pass"

... When you have often drafted off of random cyclists

... You have unintentionally convinced multiple people that you are mentally challenged by doing your drills in public.

How's it going?

-Your friends and your family think and tell you that you look like a stick.

-Your arms are as big as your forearms (which are just a bit bigger than your wrists)

-You're 5'8 130lbs and don't give a damn

-You've scared quite a lot of people running because they didn't hear you coming

-You've used more than once the "I got a race/10 miler tomorrow morning" in order not to meet with someone or to get out of some boring situation

-Letsrun is your favorite website

-You bump a great old thread

-You have a PhD in trolling from the University of Letsrun (may apply or not)
