After running my first-ever half marathon on Saturday, I was left truly inspired (and other times cracking up laughing) by some of the people's signs and slogans. I have no clue how people are so creative because I could never think of things like this on my own. I went home after the race and decided to poke around at other funny race sign ideas, and was (admittedly) laughing out loud at my screen over some of these posters. I figured I'd share the love by compiling 10 of my favorites:
1. "You trained for this longer than Kim Kardashian was married."
Let's face it: we all train for more than 72 days for something like 13.1 or 26.2 miles.
2."That bad Tinder date's behind you...run faster."
Equally as motivational: "Run like Ryan Gosling is in front of you and a creepy dude is behind you."
3. "Chafe Now, Brag Later."
4. "I'm sure it seemed like a good idea 4 months ago."
Before the blisters, 7am wake-up calls for Saturday long runs, changing your nutrition and caloric intake, middle-of-the-night charlie horses, dehydration, never-ending hunger...
5. "At least you're not at work."
Silver linings, man.
6. "If I see you collapse, I'll pause your Garmin."
Every runner's worst fear is their race watch time being inaccurate.
7. "You know the 1st person to do this DIED, right?"
Poor, poor, Pheidippides.
8. "Me: Coffee, Bacon, Toenails. You: Pain, Sweat, Free T-Shirt."
Free t-shirt = worth it.
9. "If Trump can run, so can you!"
Accurate.
10. "This parade is going to fast...where are the floats?"
Worst parade ever.
