MUXC2K3-
don't look at the posts then. people are talking about a world-class athlete moving from one endurance sport to another. sure, it's worthless, but most of the stuff on the boards are. your analogy was awful, by the way. It doesn't make any sense.
you can see the title of the thread. if you aren't interested, don't click on it. it might be hard at first. but with some practice, i'm sure you can be skipping threads left and right within just weeks.
Finally, I would be surpised if Lance couldn't break 30 after about a month of running. His body is as efficient as they come, and he's strong as hell. He would just need to get the specific muscles warmed up a little.
