A Running Joke

Fun

22 Mar

I really wanted a Subway Tuna sub for lunch after my interview. But, I got lost on the way home and didn’t want to deal with it after driving in circles for a half an hour.

At least I went home and made a salmon salad wrap to try and satisfy the craving!

In the mix: mayo, relish, onions, random veggie mix about to die

I eat the whole can of tuna salmon – is that normal?

Today I’m starting a new RER segment called – A Running Joke

When runners get together we often talk about favorite races, gear, PRs, food and of course – funny running stories. Each Tuesday I’ll feature a funny running story, sign, picture or joke shared by you!

I’ll go first…(even though I’ve told this story on Ask a Monican)

The funniest thing that’s ever happened to me while running was… my first week in Maryland I was on my first long run in that new humid climate. At one point I wiped my boogers on my sleeve (like I always do, because I’m a lady) and noticed BLOOD!

Since I was without a mirror or access to an E.R. I stopped an innocent lady walking down the street. I asked screamed frantically, “Do I have blood on my face?!?!?”

I’m sure it scared the crap out of her and she thought I was a crazy.

She looked confused so I repeated myself while pointing at my nose. I pictured a bloody mess running down my face.

She assured me I was “okay” and rushed away probably to call the cops and report a lunatic with a bloody nose on the loose.

When I got home I saw a little dried blood on my nose, but it was really nothing. I was freaked out and stopped a stranger for nothing. Ha!

I also LOVE funny running signs at races!
