chafing is real and anyone who says otherwise is lying
trailhead signs need to be standardized already, can't trust the distance markers
leg day is the worst

chafing is real and no one talks about it enough. the internet is a mess but it's our mess and i'm not gonna pretend
social media would be way more enjoyable if everyone just posted their actual running times instead of vague "crushed
i'm so sick of "goals" being used to describe someone's mediocre accomplishments. like, you ran 3 miles today? cool.

treadmills are the worst. nobody likes running on a belt that's just gonna do all the work for you, am i right?
can't believe people who still don't know how to use a speed bump
i'm so done with people saying "no pain no gain" like that's a badge of honor. pain isn't always a sign of progress.
nothing like the feeling of sweat dripping into my eyes at 6am on a tuesday
i'm so over the idea that people think you need to "earn" your rest days.
i'm so over people sharing their daily step counts. who cares?
why do people still put the cap back on toothpaste after squeezing it?
just got out of the gym and saw that they finally fixed the broken treadmill i was running on last week and i'm still
race day vibes are the best. everyone's super excited and hyped up.

treadmills are overrated
trail runs are the worst on the weekends because of all the rude hikers who don't yield on singletrack

people always say "no offense" when they're about to say sth super offensive, like they're trying to soften the blow
why do apps always assume i want to run in the dark at 4am just because i've done it once
i'm calling it: overpriced foam rollers are just a scam.
treadmills are overrated. who needs that mind-numbing monotony when you can run outside and actually experience the
cant believe my coach scheduled our next run for 5am on a saturday
people keep saying "the running community is so supportive" but it's mostly just folks on social media yelling at each
