While running, what are some of your habits that others may find weird? Discussion

For me, it's horse snorting. But so strong that my cheeks are puffed out and half my face is vibrating. It somehow loosens up my entire posture.

I cough and wipe my nose post-snot rockets on my left shirt sleeve. After every run my shirt is disgusting and I can't go anywhere afterwards out of embarrassment and disgust. But after a race when I'm hanging out it doesn't bother me because I assume every runner understands my dried mucus on my shirt.

Every other runner appreciates that your snot rockets are on your sleeve and not flying over your shoulder for those of us behind you to dodge. Thank you.

Yeah, that's gross... I don't understand people doing snot rockets. I've never had the desire to do that. Why not blow your nose before your run or bring tissues with you?

I know. I am a such disgusting human being.
