What did I learn?
1. I learned it is possible to wrestle a Cheetah and win but if it is anything larger (lion), I would be merely an appetizer.
2. I learned some people who post here want to nuke the Sun, which only happens to be the largest source of nuclear energy in the galaxy.
3. People who have never broken 5 minutes for a mile think Alan Webb is training the wrong way.
4. The boys national high school x-c champion is a 22 year old from Ethiopia who probably will be running in the Golden League by the time he is 23.
5. The most pressing issue facing American Men isnt Cancer but the post-nuptial shutoff.
6. The average time for the mile by posters on the boards is 4:17.
7. Somehow, we are all expected to run minimum 100 miles/week and not get hurt or have other time conflicts such as a family, job, etc.
On a serious note, Happy New Year to all of you and hopefully we will all be debating how best to wrestle a cheetah in 2009.
