So why so many stickers on cars? Why does everyone need to tell the rest of the world how far they ran? No one puts other numbers on cars-how much money they earn, how much their house is worth, how many children they have, the record number of times they had sex in a day/week (might be interesting) or whatever. And I admit, my car has two stickers-the impressive 226 (the k’s in an Ironman triathlon, now who’s showing off) and the more pedestrian 42.2. Now if I glance over, I only risk running into the car ahead of me. ![]() I used to pass by a car with a 42.2 sticker and assume that I knew the person. Those in Israel who wish to show off that they’ve run those 42.2k on American soil stick on a 26.2 sticker, and if they’re humorous, 27.4 (I got lost). Even non-runners paste their protest post-0.0. Now they just plaster it all over the back of their cars-42.2, 21.1, 61, 100, 144 (all in kilometres), the numbers run the gamut. ![]() How do you know when someone’s run a marathon? They tell you.
