Do any of you have any friends that constantly talk about their hobby/sport of choice?

I have a friend who is obsessed with their new found sport, it's all they talk about and post about on social media. Now I should say I am happy they have found something they love but I just have no interest in constantly talking about it myself. I try and steer the conversation onto something else but somehow it ends up back on the sport!

AIBU?

Ha, ha, my husband calls my incessant wittering about running 'the mating call of the running bore'! But I do try to reign myself in when I'm around non-runners. When you discover a passion it's really super-hard to keep quiet about it, so just gently steer your friend round to talking about other things (and maybe just join her for a run one day to see what she's on about?!) But beware if she starts emailing you about her heart-rate as someone I know did to me - then you've got a 'situation' on your hands, and better just run away...
