In winter, your favorite running routes occasionally submerge your shoes. And your shorts.

You look forward to the rainy season.

When you get back to your car, you’re grateful the windows aren’t shot out.

You run in orange clothes during deer season.

While running in summer, the roof of your mouth taste like dust. And other things.

Some of your favorite running routes require the use of your hands.

You have limped long distances to your car after ankle sprains.

It sometimes takes 2 hours of driving time to do a 2-hour run.

You wish there was more oxygen in the mountains.

You laugh at the inaccurate mileages listed on trailhead signposts.

You have said “I’m pretty sure the car’s on the other side of that mountain.”

You habitually return to running routes you swore you’d never do again.

You have seriously underestimated the distance of a loop on a map. Several times.

You are sometimes late getting home from running. By several hours.

You have been escorted from uninhabited parts of military bases.

You honestly can’t understand why everyone doesn’t like running where you do.
