You know you’re not a runner when...

[Dralimc]

You know you’re not a runner when your neighbour says ‘ooh yes! I’ve seen you walking, but I’ve never seen you run’. Bastards. 🙄🏃🏻‍♀️

[badger187 Graduate]

You're in a better place than them!! Don't let it get to you!!! Good running!

[Dralimc Graduate in reply to badger187]

I think they only see me during my warm up walk and cool down. That’s what I’m telling myself anyway. 😊

[Granspeed Graduate in reply to Dralimc]

Perfectly correct! 😄 Here you are later: 🏃🏼‍♀️💨 They just missed the real you!

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate]

Dralimc, don't use the B word here at all, you are a runner and graduate, ignore your neighbour, I bet he could not run for a bus, let alone for 30 minutes or even walk a 5K.

[ButtercupKid Graduate]

As I staggered back in from conquering week 9, soaked in sweat and blazing like a beacon, my husband looked up and asked “How was your walk ?” Honestly ! If I’d ever been in that state from a WALK I’d have sought emergency medical help 😂

[Dralimc Graduate in reply to ButtercupKid]

That’s funny! That really made me laugh!

[Couchpotato2 Graduate in reply to ButtercupKid]

😂😂😂

[orcadia Graduate]

Your neighbour only sees you during the warm up walk and warm down walk. Folk who live more than 5 mins away will know you're a runner. Hopefully. 😀🏃

[Dralimc Graduate in reply to orcadia]

Hopefully! 🤞

[Couchpotato2 Graduate]

Sounds like envy to me... get them on the plan!

[Buddy34 Graduate]

Next time run right past their house 😂

[Dralimc Graduate in reply to Buddy34]

My next 5k will be running up and down our street, albeit 50 times.

[Running_Giraffe Graduate]

I'm the opposite 😂 I have people asking why I'm not signing up to marathons now I'm a "runner" umm I've just managed to run 8 mins hardly marathon ready 😂

[Dralimc Graduate in reply to Running_Giraffe]

Those 8 minutes must be impressive!

[Irish-John Graduate]

And me being me I would respond

"Wow! As far down as you constantly bury yourself in your sofa...you sure have a good view out your window!'

😆

[Dralimc Graduate in reply to Irish-John]

🤣

[Irish-John Graduate in reply to Dralimc]

Happy Valentine's Day 😘☺️

[Dralimc Graduate in reply to Irish-John]

You too 😘🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♂️

[Irish-John Graduate in reply to Dralimc]

☺️

[Deepestblue Graduate in reply to Irish-John]

Haha! Love it!

[Ang33333 Graduate]

My neighbours are like that. 'Oh are you going out for a little jog? '

[Dralimc Graduate in reply to Ang33333]

How rude!!! If only they knew the blood, sweat and tears!

[Fabulous450 Graduate in reply to Ang33333]

Get all excited and tell them yes 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 and it really makes you feel so amazing that I can run for miles! That’s the answer they need! 😂😂! I bet they don’t ask again!! 😉

Thankfully I don’t have those kind of neighbours and my coaching pensioners in the park are just a memory now! 🤣❤️

[pugmumma Graduate]

Lots of people don’t want to celebrate with you which is why I love this group.

[Fabulous450 Graduate]

Cheek! Tell them to put their running gear on so you can leave ‘em for dust! They’ll certainly know why they’ve never seen you! 🤣🤣! Who cares? It’s a one woman event! Keep going Dralimc! 💪🏽🥰❤️

[Dralimc Graduate in reply to Fabulous450]

😘😘😘

[WalkingWithLabradors Graduate]

I bet the only thing that runs in their house is their mouths. 🙄😂

[Dralimc Graduate]

Exhausting! 😓

[AnneDroid Graduate]

You ARE a runner.

If you run, you are a runner. One of these days they'll be out and about and see you after your warm up walk and realize their mistake.

[ktsok Graduate]

What an unnecessary and thoughtless comment. Smile nicely and pity their undeveloped social skills.

[Dralimc Graduate in reply to ktsok]

I will! Good advice!

[Dozydora61 Graduate]

I had a neighbour slow down their car to congratulate me on keeping going. Others will have noticed your efforts, keep it up.

[Happyrunningfeet Graduate]

Ignore it ur doing it for ur benefit not theirs and probably a lot more than they are doing, U could always ask them to join u on ur "walk" and see how long they keep up with u. 🤣

[Dralimc Graduate in reply to Happyrunningfeet]

Ha ha! I’d love to see this. They drive everywhere!

[Islerunner]

Brilliant!!!!!!

[UnfitNoMore Graduate]

I agree... they are!
