My attitude is that if you push me towards something that you think is a weakness, then I will turn that percieved weakness into a strentgh. - michael jordan

The top 5 things I have learned from being a runners girlfriend

These are only the top 5 things I have come across on dating a runner. Now, if you are dating a runner you can probably understand or at least sympathize with some of these topics. I'm going to do it like they do it on a night time show.

#5: As soon as someone knows that you are dating a runner you automatically need to know his professional stats, college stats, high schools stats and any other significant time he has made before the age of 10...

#4 Just because he is healthy and fit he believes you can be and will be sure to comment on your un healthy lifestyle (if it is in fact unhealthy).

#3 You need to know how many laps is a mile, how far you need to go for a 400m and 800m and exactly what a block start is. Which I do know...thank you very much..so there is no need to ask :)

#2 No matter how hard I train or how much of a lead I have in running...he will always win.

And the #1 thing that I have learned from being a runner's girlfriend...I am now no longer known by my given name brittinie...I have now been dubbed as a Scherer's Girlfriend : )

You just gotta love it
