New runners are often prone to saying "I’m not a real runner," as if there’s a litmus test for such an entity. Okay, maybe there is. Work it out for yourself. You know you’re a real runner when: 


1. You eat energy bars when you don’t have to.
2. You can find a place to pee anywhere, any time.
3. You’ve had the same unopened packet of frozen peas in your freezer for the last two years.
4. Your running shoes are the first thing you pack for your summer holiday.
5. When walking in a crowd, you make a conscious effort to catch and pass the person in front of you.
6. The staff at your local specialist running shop greet you by name when you walk in.
7. Your osteopath sends you Christmas cards.
8. Every time you climb a flight of stairs, you put your fingers to your wrist to check your heart rate - then go back and do it again.
9. You can’t remember your mother’s birthday, but you can rattle off your last five 10K times, including the seconds - and you know they’re faster than hers.
10. When you read this list, you think, "Is this supposed to be funny?"
