Well said. I would be everyone who's criticizing the professional running lifestyle is a bitter 4HLer (four hour lifer, desk jockey who gets home from work at 6pm and have to get to bed by 10 so they can leave by 6-7am). Now obviously someone who only focuses on running during and after college is going to have a very low earning potential the rest of their life but it's not like the average American 4HL lifestyle is that great either.
