I actually didn't know about Garth Brooks!
And I didn't think of Jim Ryun immediately because I'm personally more interested in the arts than politics.

Too many women to list, although women weren’t able to run collegiately until when?
If you want to hear about some women who are running as part of their success journey:

Bob Kempainen is unique because he was the best American marathoner while completing med school, gave up professional running after ‘96 Olympics.
But there are probably a ton of excellent D1 runners from Stanford who have moved into successful careers.

Gotta set the bar somewhere. Running is such a popular hobby that at some point almost all successful people could be on the list of successful runners!

Yeah except that too shows ignorance because many D2 and some D3 runners are better than D1 runners.

Admiral William McRaven has to be pretty damn high on that list. Headed the op that killed bin Laden, and gave one of the few good commencement addresses in the history of American universities.

first, Ryun's career in congress was arguably not successful due to some sort of scandal that led to his retirement.
Joe Falcon retired to a good honest career as a police officer, running down criminals and setting the donut-mile world record. His cop mile WR was beaten by Kiprop though.This post was edited 50 seconds after it was posted.92 -

Once one is a member of the club, U.S. Congress, access the insider information. U.S. Congresspersons only have to turn in a ballparker networth range annually. U.S. Congresspersons do not have to turn in their trade coupons/receipts or monthly trade statements. U.S. Congresspersons, at the worst get an internal reprimand for insider trading. U.S. Congresspersons are never turned over to N.A.S.D. or N.Y.S.E. or S.E.C. or C.F.T.C. for investigation. U.S. Congresspersons are never indicted or criminally charged by F.B.I. or any state with jurisdiction for insider trading. Being in the club is the honor.
