The embarrassing runner’s badge of honor

Let’s not tiptoe around it.

If you run, you’ve danced with danger. Not the “sprained ankle” kind. We’re talking about the code brown kind.

You know the moment. You’re cruising through mile 5, feeling strong, when suddenly your stomach whispers, “We need to talk.” By mile 6, it’s yelling. And by mile 7? You’re scanning the horizon like a fugitive, praying for a bush, a porta potty, or divine intervention.

Running isn’t just about endurance. It’s about strategy. Hydration. Footwear. And yes — bowel management.

🚽 Real Talk from the Trail

Some runners swear by the “pre-run coffee and pray” method. Others carry baby wipes like holy relics. A few brave souls have sacrificed socks, dignity, and even asked construction workers for access to their sacred porta potties.

One woman confessed she once ducked under a bridge. Another said she just runs faster and hopes God is watching. And then there’s the legend who calmly stated: “Let ‘er RIP, baby.”

We salute you, trail warriors.

Because here’s the truth: if you’ve never pooped in public (or come dangerously close), you haven’t run far enough.

🏃♀️ The Roadrunner Incident

Inspired by this universal runner struggle, we created a t-shirt that celebrates our shared shame with pride. Meet the Roadrunner — caught mid-business, arrested at mile 7, holding a sign that reads:

“Police Department — Mile 7 Incident — Caught Peeing in Public.”

It’s ridiculous. It’s relatable. It’s runner realness.

Whether you’ve sprinted toward a bush, begged a stranger for toilet access, or mastered the art of the “pre-run run,” this tee is for you.

Wear it like a badge of honor. Because you’ve earned it.
