Runsplaining

The act of assuming a new member of your running club is new to the sport of running and minimizing their answers to questions about their background.

For example; if they say they haven't done any races in a while a runsplaining person may assume it's been a few years but maybe it's been just a few months. If they say they are not running as much as they used to, the runsplaining person may assume they are running a minimal amount when in fact it could still be serious mileage.
Them: Hey ! I've never seen you at our runs before. So, you just decided to get fit ?

Me: Yeah sure. Whatever makes you feel better about yourself.

****************************************
"I told them I haven't been running as much as I used to and they were runsplaining me. They said, "oh well, glad you're getting back into it."

"I didn't tell them I was running (x number of miles) and kicking butt. Oh well."
