I am a college freshman who is very very serious about running. My 5k time is 15:54 and dropping. I run 67 miles a week for a D3 school. I am scared to date a girl because i feel like it will distract my rapid success on the track. I am also scared to have sex because i feel like it will waste energy for some of my long runs and workouts. Does anyone else have the same concern/thoughts? Is this normal?

You think your sex is going to take so long and be so exhausting you can't get a run in? What are you, the 3-hour-man?
Have some sex, bro.
Sure you can take running seriously but if you pass on other things in life you will regret it later. Go for the girl. Find the right balance. You can still run just as good or even better with a few distractions and permission to have fun.
The people who take running too seriously and pass on fun experiences are the ones who regret it later when they're 30 and no longer care about running. You don't want to be reminiscing and have all these regrets because you didn't go to any parties or have any fun while you were younger because you only cared about running.
good. preserve your vital essences for maximum performance. how do you think kipchoge does it?
A guy who only has a 15:54 5k has no business being concerned that something will make them slower. You're not running fast enough for it to be worth not doing something, unless it's something very small. And finding a significant other, potentially for the rest of your life, is not some small thing. Sure, you don't have to have sex. I would actually recommend not having sex with someone until you've dated for quite a while. You can get anxiety that you'll get them pregnant and they're not someone you actually want to have a child with, and that can screw up the rest of your life. But worrying about wasted energy??? That shouldn't be your concern. So no, it's not normal.
Balanced life will make you a better running.

This^. I am coaching two female athletes that are running faster than you are. Put your pride in your pocket and find balance in your life.

You are dropping but it's not your 5k time.

You have the opposite problem of the OP. You worry that running might tire you out too much to have sex.
Incredible troll
