Updated for 2015
I created a hashtag and image called #RunnerCandyHearts for Valentine’s Day (2013)… sort of a play on “runner pick up lines” but imagined them on those little candy hearts. I know some of them are too long to fit, but just go with it. It’s for laughs.
Back in 2013, after I posted a variation of the image above with the #RunnerCandyHearts hashtag, it just sort of sat there with a few people commenting. Then the one and only Runner’s World RT’d it and internet madness happened:
After RW sent it out to the masses and it immediately received a bunch of RTs and other runners started joining in.
I’m not judge and jury, but here are some of MY favorites:
I don’t want to give you the wrong compression, but… #runnercandyhearts — Alyssa (@AlyssaRun) February 14, 2013
