   Here's a fun topic:

   unlike gym rats, it's easy to know if that guy/chick you just passed by have been working out. Sometimes, it's already obvious in the physique, sometimes in the fit shirts, etc...

   For us runners, it's a bit harder, don't you think?

   Well, here's some of my personal faves. Add yours! It's free!

   1. Tan lines include a combination of the ff:
   - singlet/tech shirt
   - arm band for music player
   - watch
   2. Malakas kumain as weekend nears(preparing for LSD or race),
   at mejo mabagal maglakad than normal pag mondays (sore legs,hehe)
   3. Sports shoe store: does foot analysis first before buying his/her pair
   4. Acessories/clothes with running mantras (ie Live2Run)
   5. Sa computer during free time, 2 window lagi bukas: FB at PF Forums WOOHOOO!!!
   <since wala ko FB, PF FORUM lang haha!>

   Share your ideas!

   LOL!!! Hmmm... Ngayon, parang gusto ko na tuloy i-check kng sino yung serious and sino yung hindi.

   Pinakamadali cguro mag-spot is from this race that I will be participating on July 16th, which is an off topic that I posted sa isang thread: the Rockville Twilight 8k. Yung race na may free beer. Of course, after the race hindi katabi ng hydration station, aka. "beer station."

   May mga runner from this event na obvious na they just want to get hammered despite na hilly yung course. Kita mo yung iba may mga beer belly tapos bigay na bigay sa umpisa...

   On a serious note, what I usually look for is the runner's form and built. Pag yung form nung isang runner consistent, relaxed shoulders, tight core, never looking down, and my rhythm yung takbo (minsan nasa criteria ko rin yung extension nung legs). Built, he/she is a bit slender. World class or elite athletes are usually have close to zero percent fat.

   As far as suot, I don't take that into consideration kasi I always believe in the notion of wearing something that you're comfortable with. Like myself, I never/refuse to wear singlets or shirts given by the organizers. Why? I may not feel comfy when I ran with that shirt/singlet. Also, I hate wearing super short shorts like elite or world class athletes do.

   Even on runners wearing iPods that's because some of my running buddies, even myself, doesn't wear an iPod cuz of a rule in most races we join that discourages runners to wear iPods or any form of mp3 players. Plus, it's part of my tri-training is learning to run without an iPod.

   Overall, and pinaka-criteria ko talaga is yung form nung isang runner.

   its hard to spot one actually, unless you see them running with running gears which is so obvious :D i can see plenty of them in ayala triangle every day, with cool running shoes and ipods.

   @lrangels - i dont wear singlet from the organizer when im running, i wear my own top. two reasons: first, the smallest is XS and the armhole is always too big for me. two arms can fit into that hole, actually :)second, its easy for me to spot my pics when i have a diff top colour :). kidding aside, i just dont feel comfortable with singlets, i wear cotton sandos when im running. And i dont use ipod or whatever music instrument. all i need is a good conversation with a buddy while im running.
