- While out running with your training partner you sight a tornado, and they insist on running at least three more miles to stay on their training plan.
- Your training partner plans summer runs and bike rides around the ice cream truck schedule.
- Your training partner signed you up for a group exercise class that involved squats and impressionist painting which frankly was better than last year’s class doing lunges and bonsai tree trimming.
- Your training partner decided to combine the fireman’s carry with the farmer’s carry and walked around the weightroom carrying you and two 75-pound dumbbells.
- On winter runs they wore a weight vest which later inspection revealed did not have weights but was stuffed with chemical hand warmers.
- Your training partner once played a hip hop opera based on the Wizard of Oz on a bluetooth speaker installed on their mountain bike.
- On a trail run your training partner asks if you have a spare gel, wants to know if you will share half of your energy bar and uses some of your moleskin for a blister. Back at the trailhead, they wonder aloud if you would be better off with a smaller hydration vest.
