Sandy,
Thanks.
Sometimes people jokingly comment that I look more feminine than my wife. She also has a slim figure considering her age, but does not exercise so much. And moreover, she seems to like wearing boyish clothes. But she replies to those comments like "whatever he looks like, he is anyway a man, and period."
Marathon has become the most popular sports in my country. I have enjoyed marathon during the past 3 years. Just completed a full-course once about 2 years ago. A lot of half-courses.
This time, it was a just 10-km course, because I had to run representing my team at workplace, and the other excellent runner ran for half-course. 10-km running is what I do at least twice per week, and I just enjoyed it mixing with all kids of people.
And some young guys chase me, trying to overtake me. Sometimes I fear that some heavy guys would break down from difficulty in breathing while trying to exceed me. In this case, other nearby people used to warn them not to run so fast.
Nearly all of ->-bleeped-<-s recognize me as a young woman at 20's, but once they see my front, they tend to be surprised and perplexed. First, mostly I attach a number plate for men (usually pink is for women, and other colors are for men). Second, my flat chest. Third, my masculine face, especially when I wear sunglasses.
To avoid this, sometimes I attach a plate for my female colleague, and wearing A-cup bra. For face, there is not so many option, because sweat clears away makeup.
My colleagues at my workplace, who usually run with me, always consider me as a man and are not willing to acknowledge my feminity, but confess that they were surprised at so many people behind me chatting or shouting how much feminine I look. But usually I can not hear such comments and shouts behind me, but I was especially glad when one male colleague told me in a year that a woman in a restaurant exclaimed at me like "how could she be so beautiful!". He has been a friend of me during the past 25 years, and never imagined I could look like a woman. I was always a tough guy to him.
