Here’s some funny running quotes I found online and/or have had on my blog:
“Jogging is for people who aren’t intelligent enough to watch television.” -Victoria Wood
If it were any easier, it’d be called football.
“Everybody can’t be good, there has to be somebody to stand on the curb and cheer us on.” – Bill Rodgers
If you went for a run today and didn’t sacrifice anything, congratulations you just jogged.
Running-cheaper than therapy.
Running-it’s a mental sport and we’re all insane.
Death before DNF.
A marathon is just a 10k with a 20 mile warmup.
My favorites:
Girl, please, my mascara runs faster than you do!
If running were easy, it’d be called your mom.
Run like you stole something.
I highlighted my favorites. What’s your favorite or do you have a good one to add?

just found your blog and wanted to say hi!
I look forward to future posts
This is much sappier than any of yours, but I’ve been obsessed with this one for a long time now:
“Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a lion or gazelle – when the sun comes up, you’d better be running.”
In high school track, the dad of one of my friends gave us this little nugget:
“Run fast, turn left.”
Ha, I like “Death before DNF.”
i’ve been reading your blog for awhile now and i’ve really been enjoying it. i actually have a 40+ page word document with running/inspirational quotes!! here’s one of my favs: “There’s no such thing as bad weather, just soft people.” sooooo apropos for the weather in NE lately
I love quotes! I don’t hate the track [as much] anymore, but I always felt this way too!
“I love running cross country…On a track, I feel like a hamster.” -Robin Williams
The track coach from my old high school used to say “Pain is weakness leaving the body” about running
I like to run it makes me smile, I think I’ll run another mile
bahaha. If running were easy it’d be called your mom…. That shouldn’t be funny, but I’m still laughing. Simple mind, lol.
Love them all, I’ll have to bookmark this for later funnies / inspiration!
At a race I once saw a girl wearing a shirt that said “It never gets easier, you just get faster”. At the time I prayed that wasn’t true, now the thought gets me through most races.
Hahaha!
lol… LOVE the mascara quote!
I love those! My recent favorite is one that I saw on a bumper sticker (and am thinking about buying) “My sport is your sport’s punishment”
lo-ove running quotes!!!
“it’s not how fast you can run, it’s how fast you LOOK like you can run”

“i know i run like a girl, try to keep up”
