Maybe a stupid topic, but something that acually involves running.
I was wondering what you all thought about great running being a predictor of career success? I have known many very good runners throughout college and after, and they all seem to have strengths that are not directly related to running. I would say, on average, the best runners have a much higher intelligence than the normal population. The best runners on my college team normally had the highest GPA's.
Does anybody care to comment about possible reasons for this?
