Dafaq? I've never even come close to getting in the Olympics, and I'd rate my running accomplishments over any (hypothetical) wife and kids. I'd even consider it a negative accomplishment since you're losing your time, money, and freedom.
As for me:
1. Earning 100K a year before 30
2. Buying a house by 25
3. Graduating from college loan-free
4. Summiting Aconcagua
5. Running a sub 2 800
6. Flying across the country in a single engine Cessna
7. Writing a program that plays grandmaster-level chess
8. Visiting all 50 states
9. Getting in the local news a few times
10. Being able to understand 4 different languages (would have rated this higher if I was very fluent in all of them)
Seriously. Read the thread title. Most of those things are not impressive at all. Douche.
Those are all solid accomplishments. Respect.
