What a well thought out post. Did it take you a few hours to come up with that? 😂
Now I’m curious…what could I have possibly written that has prompted such an emotionally charged response? Please enlighten me.

You have a lot of sensitive, easily butt hurt types on this board who lash out in the face of reality.

Maybe this is your first encounter with this poster, a vain never-was with too much time on his hands who is a legend in his own mind and wears that identity on his sleeve.

And I have quit. I can get sucked into things here without recognizing I'm being sucked in.

The winners of my local road races (men in the 15:00 range, women in the 17:00) always look like hot garbage. They run 100 mile weeks while working a 9-5. They're underweight, weathered, stressed, neurotic. Grinding out mile after mile just for a goofy Turkey Trot victory, knowing that one day age will inevitably catch up. Bleak.
Dial it back a few minutes and you see the Chads and qt3.14 grills and so on. Normal, healthy, fun, free. Just chillin, just runnin. Superior physiognomy and superior health markers.
The modal human should really just be doing moderate exercise at best. Some light lifting and simple cardio. Lift objects and set them down. Go out and run or bike or swim. Simple as. Eat well and sleep well.

Take pride in being mediocre.

This 2017 study says otherwise if "health" is "longevity". Lean distance runners and jumpers (loping) have on average a longer life expectancy than body building events like throwing and sprinting.

Little people both male and female do tend to live longer.
I suspect it’s God’s way of compensating them for having to go through life as little people.

I do try to improve and I'd like to get from mid 17 to sub 17, but I run no more than 30-35 MPW.
I train based on the idea of "minimum effective dose".

It’s a shame others on here don’t follow your lead. There’s be less running injuries that’s for sure.
Its not as if most on here are getting paid for it…
