@C’dog – maybe it WAS a near-death experience
I’ve competed in lots of strenuous sports, from wrestling to basketball to mountain biking, but distance running just throws me. I can’t do it. On the other hand, my wife trained and ran a few 10k’s. I picked her up after one – she ran under 45 minutes and was as fresh as if she had walked around the block. She’s just made for it.
