. . .when emergency vehicle drivers know your face from all the times they insist on yelling, "Don't hurt yourself, I don't wanna have to come back here."

. . . when you test your shoes grip on everything during the rain, juuuust to make sure it's too slippery to practice on. (stupid rain ruining my precisions...)

You use "Have you seen Casino Royale?" as your first attempt to explain parkour to someone.

You know you are a tracuer when you see this hot college girl being dumped, seeing this perfect opportunity you walk up to her. Then you see this hot spot and run over there.

...when you keep finding small, random bruises with no recollection of where they came from.

...when you watch old cartoons and wish you could give pointers to Coyote.

...when you drive past someone jogging and all you can think is how bad their form is and how they're killing their knees.

...when you enjoy getting somewhere as much (if not more) than being there.

...when you can lose a dog in a chase.

...when you choose your clothing each day based at least partly on how it would aid/constrain your ability to do Parkour.

...when you have a piggy bank by your bed that has "PARKOUR SHOES" written on the side.

...when you watch your friends rock climbing/buildering and think about how much energy and time they're wasting ("Don't you see the faster, easier way up?  Here, just run up here and grab that...")

...when you stop carrying your cellphone in your back pocket, because it hurts to roll on it.
