You see another runner walking along, then they suddendly start running, and you wonder if they're doing C25K too....

You happen to find yourself going in the same direction as another runner, it's not a race, but you both know it's a race....

You start replying out loud to Laura

You're in your car at the lights, windows down, ipod pumping through your speakers. A convertable with two hotties pulls up next to you, then.... "Welcome to Week 3 of the NHS..."

And when you're out in the car and every runner you see makes you want to shout "Hey - are you on C25K?" but you know you daren't....

Perhaps we should get running vests and car stickers to identify us to each other......
