My worst experience was farting but it turns out to be poop instead of farts and everyone finds out.
My worst experience was farting but it turns out to be poop instead of farts and everyone finds out.
Running the County championship course( a civil war battlefield) two days prior to the race. Having to poop and there being no bathroom/ portapotty. Found a corner of the field and began pooping. I look up while pooping and see a tour bus stopped in the middle of the field. I don't think anyone saw me but it was definitely the most embarrassing thing i've ever done. Keep in mind I had been running here for a few years and never saw a tour bus or anything of that sort. And yes the poop was still there when we raced haha.
In college I lived on the top floor of a 12-story dorm. One day I got on the elevator and was in a huge rush because I was late for track practice. (Yes, in retrospect I should have taken the stairs, but that's beside the point.)
Anyway, the elevator proceeded to stop at ever floor on the way down and people kept piling on, well beyond the recommended capacity of the elevator. I was the shortest guy on the elevator, crammed in at the back, and getting more impatient with each stop. When the elevator stopped on the second floor I lost it and yelled from the back, "Take the goddam stairs!" (Bear in mind that I couldn't see over anyone in front of me.)
No one said a thing, no one got on the elevator at the 2nd-floor stop, and the doors quietly closed. Then someone in the front said, "It was a guy in a wheelchair..." Obviously and deservedly, I was embarrassed and felt like a total d-bag.
Someone found out I go to Letsrun.
Most embarassing thing? Finding letsrun.

Oh man, that is really bad. Be glad that was then. If it had happened in 2018, you would have been filmed, put on Twitter, labeled irredeemable, receive death threats, and would never have a job.
Do you see why forgiveness is important? Should you be judged by that one stupid moment forever?

Finally I got a date and was finally going to get laid, and I couldn’t rise to the occasion. When my date kissed me I blew my load instantly in my running shorts. I left Burger King embarrassed and waited for Uber.
Thought I was the only one. I was on duty at work though and then after the embarrassing moment had to go back to the register and take her order. Saddest part was when she said I know the service will be fast.
I was an intern at a small company while taking mba classes. While desperately trying to prove myself, I accidentally left a cheesy pita in the microwave too long and it started a fire. The whole building was evacuated and they called me fire guy.
Even worse, I ended up with a corporate position and became everyone's boss... Until I eventually got fired and became the intern again.

Hi Fire..D guy!
I was watching the Women's 5000m from the Mediterranean Games yesterday on YouTube. Have a look at the back of Ines Monteiro's green running bottoms. I think the Portuguese runner duplicated your experience for twelve and a half laps in front of a live audience and now also on YouTube. You can have some comfort in knowing you were not captured on film.

That’s exactly what happened. Ew I feel so bad for her...

Doubtful it was the same situation. Probably a case of hemorrhoids...or just an unfortunate pre-race "sharting" accident. Embarrassing either way, though.

Well, that certainly wouldn't ever happen in the 800

Ok I suppose it’s time I share. I’m a female and don’t get my period often, but of course with my luck it started right in the middle of my 5 miler.
I bled through the front of my shorts pretty bad. I noticed as soon as it started and was trying to get home as fast as possible.
I was within a quarter mile of my house when a large lady who I was previously running towards but am now behind, turns around and looks me up and down again. She says “honey I don’t mean to embarrass you but...” and waves her hand over her crotch area. I said “I know. It’s bad. I’m heading home” and the worst part was I had to walk with her to get to my house because I couldn’t get around her in the alley.
I’m so embarrassed. She was also pulling a small child in a wagon.
Now I’m just thinking of all the people that saw me running like that. Ughhhhh
That's nothing. The woman understands. The child has no idea. You will never see either of them again and if you do, "Who cares?"
I am not a female, but it is likely that nobody was staring at your crotch while you run, and if they were, again, "Who cares?"
People get their period every month, all girls know this, most men are mature enough to to realize this and not give it another thought. To me it is roughly equivalent to running with a bloody nose. No big deal.
If you are that embarrassed by this, I don't see why you don't carry a pad everywhere you go, even while running.
This is not as embarrassing as pooping your pants, and lots of people do that.
Can anyone give me a time frame of when the sharting happens?
I don't want to keep zooming in looking at butts jiggle. When does first blood start?
It’s there from the beginning.

In college I dated a girl a year older. Missed out on pretty much all the fun of getting with ladies in college since I was with her. She graduated and moved home, 1000 miles away. Come spring my senior year I got a job where she lived since we were still dating.
Well she broke up with me the weekend of graduation. So I then had a job 1000 miles away right next to where my now ex lived.
Pridefully I kept the job and moved out. I was embarrassed for a while, but years later I love it here.
Did you ever make out with her in the new city? It's hard to have complete breakups.
