Guys, would you date/marry a girl faster than you?

only if she was smokin'

therefore the question becomes not if the guy would deal but if the girl would even be attracted to a guy that's slower then her...

Isn't almost every guy in the world slower than you? You would be severly limiting yourself.

I'll never have to worry about this, being a former elite runner in HS and College.

My first baby mama could kick my butt in the 400, but, I would leave her miles behind in an 8k.

If she could drop a 52 then she would be world class. If you are worth anything you should at the very least be able to run 53-54 in the 400.

I have, in the past, dated a guy that was slower than me. I most likely will not in the future. Especially when dates are long runs in my book....I hate slowing down so they can keep up.

you'd have to be pretty slow for a girl to beat you

you are a dream date.

I'm 180 and all muscle now and even I can keep up with the fastest of chicklets.

Its amazing how out of shape most people are, including all the buff guys that think they're fit.

I don´t mean to brag, but my PRs from the 1500-10k would be Women´s WRs. It would be awesome to date a WR holder.

Your tried to brag but don't worry you have has quite the reverse effect

As for dating a WR holder, I couldn't handle the competition for the shaving mirror

I'd date anyone that gave me a chance.

She'd hold world records and most likely be from Kenya or Ethiopia, so...no

Hell yes I would. At this point I am a big mass of muscle that still runs 50 miles a week. A female faster than I would likely be very fit. I like that idea.

are we talking sprinters? or just distance runners?

because i'd date allyson felix... hah, or at least try.

I'd date a chick that could put the shot farther than me. I love me some amazons.

It's best to either date men who are way slower or faster and take the direct competitiveness out of the equation. I ended up marrying a guy faster and life is good!

No because any runner who is faster than me is on drugs.

1. She must run or be athletic. If she doesn't care about her own body, how is she suppose to care for my needs? IF she is faster than me, then she is rather athletic, so good.

2. If she is Lisa Koll, all the better.

3. She must drink or buy beer/chocolate milk.

ALSO, there is a lot of FAST runners on here!

I used to date a girl that was faster than me, comparatively at least. She got a lot faster after we broke up, which of course was really annoying to watch.

A good person to ask would be Adam Goucher.

Adam could train for 3 weeks and be faster than Kara. 13:10-14:50ish? COME ON!

27:50ish-30:40ish? No contest

1:14 half marathon? NOPE, probably not a 1:06 either.

The only race you might be right about is the marathon, because that's more based off conditioning than talent. However, if Adam put in a couple months of base he could break 2:20 with ease, something Kara Goucher isn't within 5 minutes of doing.

no but only because I don't find any of the 3-4 women who are faster than me attractive.
