You might be a runner if... hearing the soundtrack to "Rocky" gives you goose bumps. you wear a black, plastic sports watch with your dress clothes. you can remember a time from a race 4 years ago, but you can't remember your friend's birthdays. you are not embarassed to show someone where your hamstring "really" hurts. you know your resting heart rate, maximum heart rate, and exactly what your heart rate is at all parts of your run. you wear your running shorts underneath your work clothes so that you can quickly get running after work. you love shoes...running shoes. you won't drive by any running store without a quick look inside. you know exactly how far a kilometer is. you have more old dirty shoes piled by the door than a farmer. you've seen Chariots of Fire at least 5 times. you read each month's issue of Runner's World cover to cover within 24 hours. you get excited when you hear that there is a new Gatorade flavor. you not only know how you did in a race, but you know exactly how every other runner finished. you spend at least 25% of your income on running stuff.
