It’s the last Friday of the month, which means Marcia has opened the runfessional. It’s also time for another Fit Five Friday hosted by Darlene, Renee, Jenn, Zenaida, and yours truly, so let’s get to it!
Mistaken Identity Runfessions
I runfess that asking my husband to take pictures for me during my runs may become hazardous to his health!
Let me explain…Recently J came out to check on me during a run and offered to take a few action photos for the Gram. He set up a couple of blocks ahead and snapped some shots as I continued on my run. Well shortly after I passed him a woman in a car approaching from a side street started beeping at me. When I slowed down she yelled out the window – “He’s videotaping you!” – she looked both alarmed and angry! I quickly assured her that I was ok and that he was my husband. She was embarrassed, but I told her not to be – I appreciated that she was alert and willing to get involved.
I runfess that I keep teasing my husband that I’m going to have an “Insta Husband” t-shirt made for him so no one mistakes him for a creeper!
What are you run-fessing? Have you ever had a case of mistaken identity on a run?

That’s hilarious! But it is good she was willing to speak up!
Have great weekend!
It really was pretty funny 🙂
ha ha that is a great T shirt! At least your husband is willing to video you. Mine lost interest years ago. He says I am too picky with my photos 🙂
I’m honestly surprised mine is still willing to take pictures!
OMG, that is so funny! But I also appreciate that she said something to you — it takes a community to keep each other safe.
Definitely! I thought it was great that she was willing to get involved.
Oh, that IS funny! Kudos to the hubby for being such a good sport 😉
The poor guy – he really is such a good sport!
Oh Lord that’s so funny! Good on her for being so aware. Haha! Your hubby is such a good sport!
I do give her a lot of credit for paying attention – most of the people I pass on a Sunday morning are barely awake LOL
Yes, your husband needs that t-shirt. That’s a funny story- nice that the woman was willing to get involved!
I really do think I should order him one 😉
That is funny. My hubby hates taking pictures. He takes horrible ones. But I think he does it on purpose so I won’t ask him anymore.
Ha that’s one way to get out of having to take pictures 🙂
LOL!! I think my husband needs that shirt too!!
I bet I could probably sell a number of these shirts LOL!
Oh geez! The intentions were good, but d’oh! That shirt would be pretty funny to see though, lol!
She was so embarrassed after the fact, but I thought it was great that she said something!
Even though it was mistaken identity, kudos to the woman for trying to protect you! What a world we live in. 🙁
All kidding aside given all that we see in the news, it was really awesome of her for stepping in when things didn’t look right to her.
Instahusband. I love it. But good on your neighbor for looking out for you
