Coach I Peed My Pants

I won't say too much when it comes to the details because I think it would be easy to figure out who I was talking about.

I overheard a track coach discuss how her girls came to her to let them know that they peed their pants while running.

I guess it was some amazing accomplishment.  The way it was talked about made it seem like it was just normal.  It was almost as if it was proof that you were running faster and getting better.

Apparently you just go.  I don't know if it's because they are so hydrated or if it's because they are concentrating so hard on running that they can't control what else happens. 

I've also heard of people who have actually done that in a high pressure situation in other sports as well.  

I don't know that I will bring this up with any runner.  Not sure it's an appropriate topic of discussion, although I do know of some that would share these details.

I guess long distance runners and racecar drivers have a few things in common.
