You know you're a runner when...

CR Thread: You know you're a runner when...

....When you drop your car off for a service and they ask you if you need a lift anywhere and you reply no thanks, I'm running to where I need to go.

Then later in the day, when you run back to pick the car up again and you arrive in the service reception and talk to the service team all sweaty and can barely hold the pen to sign the documents! And you don't worry that people going about their everyday lives are looking at you strangely!


FRI: 5.6 km

Dropped the car off at Lilydale for a service, and ran over the hill to Chirnside (work). Nice enough run through Lilydale, but Maroondah Hwy wasn't much fun - the only safe place to run was on the wide grass verge, although "grass" is a bit of an exaggeration. My shoes and socks were soaked through, and I had to watch my footing as the ground is pretty rough in places. The GPS kept dropping out too, which surprised me. 2.3 degrees - glove weather to start with, although I got warm on the hill.

Didn't run back in the afternoon: my socks were still soaking wet, and I didn't feel like having another shower at 4pm - and it was a bit too early to leave work for the day.

I enjoyed the run in though.
