They would have the physique of a 32 min guy as well.
This would, of course, vary by person, some people would rather be overweight than "scrawny", some people would pay tons, and some would pay money in theory but in actuality they wouldn't appreciate being at 32 min 10k runner because they didn't put in the work, so it would be meaningless.
Go ahead and discus this.

None. A 32-minute gets you nothing. I don't know any non-runners who wish they could haul off and run one without training.

People would spend money on the physique if they were overweight. No one would spend a red cent on the running fitness.
I would pay quite a lot of money to run 32 with minimum training.
I would then train hard for a couple of years and should end up running some seriously fast times.

The average person would pay zero dollars. Since you even ask this question, you do not know anything about the average person.

You are not an average person. You do lack comprehension.
No one would pay to have the physique of a 32min 10k guy, except maybe a 27 min 10k guy

I think you would have a lot more takers among women than among men (assuming they didn't have to have a 32 minute 10k guy's body).
But for women, those times would get you a free college education, and you could certainly get some money after school with that 15 minute 5k. And I don't imagine they would have too much problem with having the physique of a 15 minute 5k woman.
For guys, a 15 minute flat 5k time in high school would probably get you scholarship money at a lot of schools. Particularly since the combination of 15 minutes and 32 minutes for a 10k means a mile time of around 4:10 or so.
Additionally, a 15/32 minute 5k/10k runner is probably not too scrawny, considering how weak the 10k is, relatively speaking.
As far as how much that fitness is worth, for women it would have some enduring value throughout adulthood. For men, those times would be most useful in getting college scholarships, and for winning master's road races.

The average person lacks comprehension, ergo, I am the average person.
How much is a pair of shoes and some running shorts? If you buy last year's model, you can probably get both for under $120.
So $120 and minimal training to be 15:00/32:00.
A lot of overweight people would pay for the physique. They'd pay more for a more muscular physique, but if all you were selling was runner's physiques, take or leave it, you'd get a lot of takers. A lot of them would never bother to take their 32/15 minute bodies to the track for a test run, so you can probably get away with selling 37/18 and advertise it as 32/15.
I doubt many runners would pay. Running 15/32 is pretty good, but not great. If you paid to get into that kind of shape (like PEDs), any accomplishments would feel empty and hollow.
The Mike Rossi's and Rob Young's of the world would be all over this.
I don't know how much Lypo costs, price it about 15% higher. Good luck with your business.

A 4:10 mile does not equate to a 15-minute 5K or 32-minute 10K. 15-flat is 31-low for 10K, and a low-4:20 mile.
The physique of a 32-minute 10K guy (this thread was not about women who run that fast) is fit enough to interest a lot of women at first glance, probably bigger, more muscular and looks better, but this is not fast enough to be elite, so I would pay a sum of zero cents since I ran this in the day.
most don't care about a 32, but I bet a middle-aged middle packer would pay some bucks for a BQ. In the average world, a 3:20 masters BQ would mean more than a 32 minute 10K at a younger age.
I agree with your conversions, 32 is about 15:15-33 equivalent and 15 is about 31:15. Not 4:10, got it.
It would be cool if the next posters could add, what point would you start to pay, assuming 32/15 is too slow.

Having one of many qualities that average people have is not sufficient to be average. Try again. You lack comprehension of logic.

Furthermore, average people do not use "ergo". Your statement refutes itself.
Bekele is sub28 10K he is lean as hell, I'm skinny but not ripped like elites, I think that super lean look is great.
As for 15 minute 5K nothing because I enjoy the training and seeing my fitness improve more than I do racing. 13 minutes okay I'll see what I got in the piggy bank
More importantly, how much would the typical LRCer pay to have an IQ above 70.
