Your teammates regard you as an up and coming masters guy.
Your teammates regard you as an up and coming masters guy.
When you don\'t know if you will have a full team till the morning of the race.
You arrive at the race looking for people to recruit to be on your team.
You show up at a race with your Frank Shorter Gore Tex
You get tasered during a race afterparty.
when cross-training is running real slow for 30 minutes on grass.
When traveling to races means hitching a ride or warming up from home to the start
You practice together once a week... and don't run on any of the other days
Your interval sessions have the track team apparel from 9+ different collegiate institutions in attendance. All with ragged holes in the shoulders...
You run 75% of your miles in the dark.
Winning an age-group medal in the next road race becomes life or death.
When tempo runs disappear and all fallback workouts are 400 repeats.
You get introduced as "This is _____. Used to run for _____. He ran sub __ in the __k back in the day."
When the top ten is as good as winning.
when facial hair is the status symbol not Race times.
You introduce yourself to a new runner at the local 5k with a smile, a cold beer, handshake, and the phrase, "Hi, I'm Tommy, how old are you?"
You know you're a douchebag...
When you make threads entitled "You know you're a ____ when..."
One of the runners in my club ran the marathon both in Osaka and Beijing.
There is always something wrong with your achilles.
This thread is great.
....when you have to cut back on mileage because your shoes are getting too worn out.
