Hi all, a newbie introduces himself to the forum . . .
The thought occured as I read through the thread, in general do runners actually think or care about life expectancy all that much ? Lots of non-runners I know are overly-obsessed with age/life expectancy/personal vanity and other countless unknowns, and (sweeping generalisation) seem to think there should be some kind of instant payback as soon as they have become a member of their local gym!
Hey, give me a life in the fast lane (a sub 3hrs PB after 18 years of trying would be fantastic) and the rest is que sera, sera.
As with Sythree, haven't visited the site in question and frankly, who gives a flyer?
Rant off.
On consideration if I am now 47 now but currently running 25 miles a week but previously ran regularly 80 miles per week but now stick to a far healthier diet during the week but tend to drink more alcohol at the weekend than I used to, but then again my quality of sleep is so much better ???
So, anyway, back to the point, are runners more/less obsessed about life expectancy ?
