No Heckling If You’re Fatter than Me

[horrorofitall]

As a runner we tend to get heckled.  Most of the time we either dont’ hear it or ignore it.  Guess what buddy, we’ve already heard it all from “Run Forrest Run” to the chariots of Fire theme. You’re not funny, you’re not even close to being original.

You are an idiot.

Now as I run down the street and you find it necessary to heckle me for some

My favorite outside-running-heckle to date was an older gent who leaned out of his classic car. His drive-by wisdom?

"BUY A BUS PASS!"

I'm still not sure why he thought a woman in jogging shorts needed one?

That is a good one.

I had two high school chaps scream "Power walking loser!" to me after I had just completed a 8 mile run and was cooling down.

Then there are the few encouraging shouts. And I think the most ego lifting was the cat calls from a car load of college age girls one summer run.
