I would DIE!" or "you're training for a half marathon? Why not just go for the full?"<br /><br />People are funny :)Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14195589078555227067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3341313959062075108.post-65839324731347288602011-05-10T20:10:27.943-05:002011-05-10T20:10:27.943-05:00I get it all the time too.

Sometimes it makes me feel good about myself...if the person doesn't freak out or make too much of it.<br /><br />Other times, like just how you described, they ask how far I run and I tell them and then I get "I don't drive that far in my car!" or some such silly answer. <br /><br />It makes me wonder if people think that this IS our identity, so they have to make alot out of it because they think we expect it or something like that???<br /><br />I can usually tell when someone is honestly complimentary or when they're just blowing hot air. I answer the first person's questions and generally try to change the subject with the second person = )<br /><br />For the record, I think you ARE an amazing runner!!! You continue to inspire and motivate me...thanks!Pony and Peteyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15001916666573033305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3341313959062075108.post-72905054827588945272011-05-10T06:59:29.314-05:002011-05-10T06:59:29.314-05:00Junie B - Marathon Runner.
