Gareth Bale is one of the most famous and richest sportsmen on the planet for his footballing exploits, and he could run 2:20 for 800m as an undersized 12 year old almost purely off of his football training.
These days he can run a 7.2 60m on studs and grass, after running 13 km in the previous 90 minutes, whilst maintaining control of a leather ball and maneuvering around defenders and then beating a world class goalkeeper to win his club a major trophy.
