I don’t know what you call them, but that person who overtakes you... and then slows down... and then overtakes you again... and then slows down again... Perhaps we should call them the Yo-yo!
I was talking to a neighbour in the lobby of my building the other day. When we were done talking he said "Well, enjoy your jog". He should be out of the hospital in 2-3 weeks.
lol, i need to pee as soon as the race starts, even though i went straight before and i need to pee the whole race, until the finish then i dont need go... far out!!! its annoying
I'm so much a Downplayer..., and a Hound. Even if I'm only a mediocre runner, my preparations include making notes on my arm about pace and distances in the run. As if I'm always entering for a WR. 😀
@@runningchannel haha I wish I was joking but my sticky out ears channel the cold air giving me ear ache if I don't wear a beany. I won't try and explain the rest lol
Group runner - runners who have gathered for a club run, and instead of running, stand at the entrance to the park for an hour, waiting for everyone to gather.
Love both videos! I'm an over analyser and heavy breather. I'm also an "always hot"/under-dresser, and will wear a vest top and shorts in the middle of winter and make everyone else feel cold, always dramatically wiping my forehead and pouring water over my head while running even when it's under 15 degrees C and love running in the snow. Another type is the "grimacing runner" who always appears to be in terrible pain/discomfort but assures everyone they love running. Another type is the event lover, who will make sure to attend every race they can possibly access, and even go to Parkrun first too on the same day.
I’m definitely a heavy breather. I have exercise induced bronchitis. Running is one of the few movements I can do that I can regulate my breathing. I keep an inhaler on me for sudden symptoms.
I am the bling collector so hard. I started running in the first place because I found out the Great American River Run 5K gave medals just for participating and I was like “I can do that”. And it just spiraled out of control from there
Aw, come on, that's not fair for "the heavy breather" -- I do it myself but only during those grueling, soul-crushing 5-minute "this is not a sprint but a very fast, controlled run" intervals of pure torture! I do get some surprised looks from people that I pass by, something like "why do you run that fast if it's not comfortable?" Loved the video BTW :)
Love this. 😆😂 The space invader is particularly annoying. I’m definitely a medal magpie but like to feel I’ve earned it. Don’t want a big medal for tying my shoelaces. 😆 I’ve accidentally taken loose change on a marathon, a couple of times. It gets discarded in the first charity bucket I pass. One type of runner you haven’t mentioned is the ones who constantly spit & fire snot rockets. I find it absolutely vile. Do. Not. Do. It!!
I would love to be the photo one...unfortunately I'm too busy getting ready for that new WR... not happy with my today's performance though. I could do so much better. I think it was a bit too hot and windy. I need to update my app. I will add the strides before the race too. Glad I bought some change with me.
The Judgy-Judge. This is a runner who has an impressive average pace and considers slower runners unworthy of their company. Thankfully, this type of runner is uncommon (I’ve only met two in ten years), as members of the running community are supportive and inspiring toward each other!
Depends on the situation, but it is understandable if a faster runner would like to train alone, as running too slowly will not really improve their fitness. They should be nice about it though and not downplay your ability
It's not necessarily that they're judging. Personally I tend to average around 6:30-7:30 pace on a long run depending on a variety of factors, if you asked me to come with you averaging 9 minutes per mile I'd say no because that pace wouldn't benefit me personally. Likewise if someone wanted me to come with them averaging 5:30 pace I'd say no as it's too hard :-(
Dan Bradford okay, I get it. But let me clarify-the two people I referenced are acquaintances of mine who look down their noses at slower runners. You have a good point, though, and I understand your rationale.
@@runningchannel well I just say " I'm going to run for x time" then run. Sometimes I take a watch and if I'm over or under, it doesn't matter. I also never log any runs. It all stays in the brain. Works wonders for me and I run ultras.
I am a down-player about being passed! I'm also a type you didn't mention: the excuser (mainly to myself). First of all I do the down-playing if I can't keep up with an overtaker, then I start on the excuses : I am older/shorter/female/tired/hungry, etc. Of course, if none of the excuses apply, then we were running for different reasons! There's always some excuse that works.
Recently found this channel and loving it so far. I’m the poser but I learned long ago I deserve to be as when you lose 135 lbs you’re damn right I’m going to show it off One that you missed is the “naturalist” this runner will be seen with no more than a pair of shorts, a tee shirt and if your lucky a toque and a pair of gloves even in the dead cold of a -32 •c Canadian winter
I would love you guys to make a video of the top things that can take a runner out. You have ‘the leg cramp’ ‘the foot pain’ the porta potty’ ‘the urinator’ ‘the fainter’ ‘the ambulance’ ‘the calf stretcher, ‘the limp-er’...
The "He's (She's) just too much" runner. Multi-year streak runner. Ran both 5k and 10k races at the same venue and medaled at both, and by the way, ran to-and-from the race to warm up and cool down.
Thank you so much. Nothing like a good belly laugh to begin the day! I wasn't there, I am the 'slowcoach' who keeps the officials at the finish hanging around!.
I might be The Hound. When I'm out for my long runs, if I get overtaken (and I usually do) I start to pace myself to the person ahead of me. I usually can't stick to it for long, but it pushes me the extra bits I need. But I do try to keep a respectable distance :D
The difference between a jogger and a runner: When faced with a red light, a jogger will continue to jog on the spot, a runner on the other hand will just stand there looking pissed off.
I am a mixture between analyzer and hound: I look through all my run data meticulously to see if I set off too hard or too slowly and I sit on the really good runner's heels and try and stick with them, which most of the time happens.
Oh dear a pocket percussionist for definite! which is good nowadays - beware i'm coming :D Also a heavy breather but not into someone's ear, just in general :D
I ‘m a couple of these - no. 2 can’t help the heavy breathing (bad lungs) I try not to run too close to people but I know they can hear me, even when I try to leave a good bit of space between us As for no. 8 in my defence, I usually don’t have the energy to overtake but I’m glad for the pacing 😀
I have two photos of me with feet off the ground. In another photo I look so focused you’d think I was doing a maths puzzle - it was right as I approached the finish line
I think I am probably ‘The Slosher’ - I get really thirsty so have loads of hydration with me and slosh around the course! I can hear it so it must be very annoying for others too 😊
What about the full face of makeup runner. I only put on a smidge of eyeliner so i don't frighten kids but some women are caked in it! This also happens at the gym.
I am the follower using another runner as my pacer. Was doing this on the Surrey Badger 20 a few years ago and the pacer slipped and hit the deck, my 1st instant thought was bigger that might screw my run up. Before helping her up and checking she was ok. Still feel guilty 7 years later
you forgot that one person who needs to use the restroom right before the race, the person that goes faster when they see you coming, and that person who always sprints the end and ends up beating you.
I used to run in downtown on my lunch hour. I went to the YMCA where I was given a locker key on a safety pin with a brass tag. I would pin that to my shorts when I ran. Due to the city noise as I ran up behind a pedestrian on the sidewalk they would hear the jangle of key on tag and the panting breathing and turn around afraid a big dog was catching up to them.
Ooh I just thought of one. I’m a high fiver, (in races only obviously). I love to get into the atmosphere I’m usually alone when running so I like to high five the volunteers. I remember my first volunteering I got such a sweaty high five from a runner it was like I was sweating myself 😂
I like having a Hound :) but the worst part is when you're gasping for breath and they start casually striking up a conversation as though you're on your Sunday Morning jog! Or when you think you've pulled away from them in the last 400m then in the last 200 they've suddenly caught up to you again! Most of my PBs come with the help of a Hound though.
I’m the extreme sweater. Even after a five minute slow run, I’ll come back looking like I just went running in a downpour. Of course, the fact that I live in central Florida doesn’t help. It’s so bad that I carry water even though I don’t really run far yet.
I'm a super salty sweater wich means I'll feel like hell if I don't replinish my electrolytes my mom doesn't sweat at all which means she ends up overheating and looking like a tomato that's about to faint on race day.
I'm definitely the heavy breather with headphones on! At Least my heavy breathing has a rythum though. I can't stand runners who come past you grunting like they're about to take their last breath, with their arms and elbows waving around! Or those who run past you and then come back in like right in front of you.. like to the point where I have to mot trip them up.
Did you spot yourself here? Are there any other types of runners we’ve missed? Comment 👇👇
I am a number 6 #selfies 🤣😂👍
I am the guy that runs towards u and greets u with 2 thumps up once i lock on eye contact
I’m The Analyser
Fatih Erdemir I wish more people did that. Nothing wrong with acknowledging a fellow runner when you’re so close!
The 'look what I ran' who puts it all over social media and starva
I don’t know what you call them, but that person who overtakes you... and then slows down... and then overtakes you again... and then slows down again... Perhaps we should call them the Yo-yo!
That's me, I'm definitely a yo-yo!!
Yeah I had some people definitely do that to me today during my race.
oh gosh i face this type of runners almost every race,if you want to overtake make sure don't do it half-assed
Mr. Walk n Run😂
@@garethanthonyclark4879 that is me lol
I was talking to a neighbour in the lobby of my building the other day. When we were done talking he said "Well, enjoy your jog". He should be out of the hospital in 2-3 weeks.
lmao
I haven’t had one Park Run or event photo where I don’t look like I’m having a heart attack, stroke or seizure 🤪
Me too. I can't breathe through my nose, so I always look like I'm shouting ninja war cries in race photos. I'm also the noisy mouth breather, too.
me too... they are all horrible, but end up on FB anyway
One time I was caught blinking and it looks like I'm sleepjogging. Yes that's a word...now.
lol, i have a weird face, half smile photo everytime,
I’ve found big sunglasses help hide the pain face haha
I'm definitely the heavy breather. And the one who starts immediately running faster if another person is walking by.
me too
How about the runner who decides to treat the rest of the runners with his own music selection?
Ahhhh yes. The loud headphones!
I've been known to sing along to my headphones (only during training, don't wear during races)
Being a baldy, I always look like Homer Simpson having a heart attack, of course
OMG, I know. These people are also found at the beach, boating, etc.
It's my 100th parkrun today
I normally stop the park running as it gets colder but this year I am just ten runs off doing 50 so want to do it by the end of the year.
Adam Oakley Congratulations Adam. 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you just setting off to run
Well done Adam! Amazing 👏
Congrats 🙂
Yeah I'm a heavy breather ,since people have stopped using their landlines ive had to diversify!
4:05 - Flying feet!! - YES!! This was so freaking hilarious! Great job people!
Thanks :)
I was thinking that a pocket percussionist was someone who were always constantly patting their pockets to check if their contents are still there. 😂
Ha!
That would be the pocket paranoid.
@@madr309 that's me.
Loved the quote, “comparison is the thief of joy.” I think I was guilty of doing that until recently.
I'm deffo the photo one and the "not a jogger" one! I'm also a variant on the percussionist, but with sloshy water instead!
Ah yes. Sloshy water! 💦
Im no. 10 : Need to use the restroom again when at the starting line or 2 km into the race😂
lol, i need to pee as soon as the race starts, even though i went straight before and i need to pee the whole race, until the finish then i dont need go... far out!!! its annoying
Paulvin Webster that’s also me, drives me mad
yep im the heavy breather...
Same😭😭😭
Same hahaa
Same
The heavy breather is my nightmare
I have to get away as soon as possible
Maybe if I raced against a 100 heavy breathers I’d smash pbs all the time
Come run with me, dude. I can't breathe through my nose, so I always sound like a walrus with emphysema. I'll getcha that PR!
madr309 hahahahaha
Stephen Parkes me too cuz I like to run alone even though I do cross country I do not like it when people are next to me and breath really heavy
I'm so much a Downplayer..., and a Hound.
Even if I'm only a mediocre runner, my preparations include making notes on my arm about pace and distances in the run. As if I'm always entering for a WR. 😀
😂
I break out the gloves and beany around October time, but I wear them with short shorts and vest :D
WHAT!??
@@runningchannel haha I wish I was joking but my sticky out ears channel the cold air giving me ear ache if I don't wear a beany. I won't try and explain the rest lol
In my experience, #8 'the hound' will sit on you the whole way, and then sprint past you in the final 20 meters!
PS. Top marks for the Hospice in the Weald vest :)
Yup, I do this every race it seems lol
I need to be the houd but I'm the downplayer
Being the hound isn't bad, It's a Olympic strategy that distance runners use
Oh God! I just went for a run this evening and I took out my earbuds for a little while. I’m a heavy breather!
Uh oh!!
I would add the opposite of the Jogger one, “The if you don’t run at a BQ pace, you’re out for an easy stroll” types.
😂😂😂 great shout

When their clip of them breathing heavy is quieter than your breathing😬

Oh shit, I'm the hound. So much. I didn't even realize. :D
🤣 we like to think of ourselves as a public service....

What abt that type of runner with the very loud watch which will be shouting every mile/km split
Ah yes, the talking watch!
So funny with the percussionist and hound! Notice she did not miss it when talked about swinging it around 😂
Anna + innuendo = 🤦🏻♀️
@@runningchannel she took that joke and jogged with it.
😂 Not a JOGGER!! 😉
Another one; the humble one/one who brings others up. Even though they won the race they commend your efforts and don’t accept compliments

I am guilty of that everytime. I believe the term is a "strong finisher".😊

Ha same
running in shorts and sports bra (cropped top) and find it insane how many women run in long leggings when the temperature is +25!!!!
