Why do you run?

Running saves your life, it keeps you sane and makes you feel free. Only runners understand that amazing feeling after you just finished a long run. It makes you enjoy the little things in life and takes you away from life for a little while.

You're addicted to those Nike running capris and you have to have the newest running shoes.You take your Fitbit or Nike fuel band very seriously and make sure you don't fall short of your goal.

Your addicted to running. You can't go a day without thinking about it and frankly, your day just doesn't feel complete without going for one.

People think you are crazy because you love to run and are quick to ask you multiple follow up questions when you say you love running. For example, you like feeling sore?, How long do you run?, Why do you like that?, How are you able to run that long?, and many more. Running is just a part of you and it's something that always will be.

Running a marathon or half marathons are the days you live for. The excitement of the race and putting all your hard work to the test. Getting up early and picking out your favorite running outfit makes you so excited. Your finish time is important to you but as long as you cross the finish line you feel accomplished.

Running is your medicine. Rather than it making you tired of feeling run down, it wakes you up and fills your body with pure joy and energy. Whenever your having a bad day you have your run to look forward to, it makes your day fnot as bad.

The most rewarding feeling is the feeling of being sore and that may sound crazy but for a runner it's what they live for. Run your life, instead of it running you.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
