NSV...Got hit on while running...

Seriously, who hits on a person while they are running? LOL

A runner ahead of me yesterday was going at a slower pace. He was fit, and in running gear, so I was happy to pass. At first he wasn't quite letting me around, and then he smiled and motioned for me to take my headphone out to chat. I don't mind talking to other runners for a bit, but after finding that my Achilles was doing great, I was trying for a PB for the 21.1k distance.

Anyway, he asked my distance, and he was surprised at my speed saying i'm going to fast. I was ****ly and told him I was going slower than usual. LOL. Then he went on to tell me about all his marathons, triathlons and Iron Mans he's done and gave me pointers. I love getting pointers, but his arrogance was killing me.

THEN, out of nowhere he says, "SO...do you run here often?" I laughed at that and said I do different routes (no need to have someone tracking me down). Then he asked if I was single. When I told him no he said that was too bad and asked how long I had been with my man!! Then we reached his turnaround point (only doing 10k because of a sore ankle..sure sure), and I sped up again.

This wouldn't have happened two and a half years ago for sure. It's nice and all, but dammit I didn't get my PB. Dude slowed me down for 5 minutes.

Great NSV!  Sorry he ruined getting your PB.  Wasn't worth it in the end if you ask me.

Good luck next run getting your PB.

Totally wasn't. Funny how I get annoyed, instead of flattered. LOL

how freaking awesome are you? hit on while sweaty and gross!!!

Well, I was only 5k in....and it was cold, so not sweaty yet....but hair in a pony tail, hat on...my kid's mittens....really, what's great about that LOL

Oh Kelly, you just made my day.

Guys can't help that they're dweebs. They've been told what is the right way and wrong way to hit on someone, so they use it again and again. Then they're surprised when their (doubtless) irresistable charms are resisted.

But maybe we shouldn't smirk so much -  we females don't practice the fine art of pickup as often as they do.

Laughed and laughed. Dude slowed you down for 5 minutes.

Guys are dumb....when my son was born, I apologized to him for being male. hhahahaha. I do know some women who are great at picking up men. Me, not so much. I also don't realize that I can come across as flirty....i'm just being me, chatty lol.

But yes....dude slowed me down for 5 minutes.....annoying.

lol...that made my laugh...the things that never happened are starting to...happy for ur success at being able to run such a distance, and hope u get another chance at hitting your bp.

I might try on the weekend. I will be running 32k and i'll see if I hit it at the 21k point then.

It is pretty funny the amount of changes we go through. I remember the first time a man went out of his way to open the door for me...that shocked me.

hahaha! Great NSV!
