You know you're a runner if:
- 95% of your laundry consists of running clothes.
- You spend more on races than groceries some weeks.
- You peel blisters off your feet so you can run again the next day.
- You've rolled out your muscles so you can run again the next day.
- When you get a pedicure, you have to ask them not to file down your calluses. (You need them to protect you feet!)
- You get visible streaks of salt on your body after a run.
- You discover you can get chafed almost anywhere...
- Therefore you are intimately familiar with Body Glide and/or Vaseline.
- You plan your entire weekend around your long runs.
- You look forward to what you're going to eat after a run.
- You tell your friends how far you ran like it's no big deal (even though it's a really big deal).
- Your quads have been so sore you can't go down stairs or sit down on the toilet.
- "Bathroom issues" are your worst fear during a long run.
- An ice bath actually sounds like a good idea.
- On a non-running day, you don't even bother to take a shower.
- When your Garmin dies in the middle of a run, it's a tragedy.
- You've done mental math to calculate your pace and projected finish time.
- You keep spare running clothes in your car- just in case.
Any other good ones I'm missing?
