It requires work, so we know.

That's impressive. It reminds me of a Rex Lee story. During an Antitrust class in '79, I think, the guy next to me raised his hand during a case discussion and asked, "Dean Lee, some of us have a betting pool going on with respect to your upcoming performance in the Boston Marathon. Can you slip me some inside info?" Rex responded, "What's the current line?" "Even money at 3:10," I believe was the answer. Rex lowered his head for a moment, and then responded quite firmly, "Bet on me." We did, and we/he won. That seems awfully fast, but he was very fit, so perhaps my memory isn't off.

We had a member in my ward, whom I regarded as "older", when I was in my early thirties, that while in his fifties, ran a 2:42 at St. George. It still boggles my mind. In his sixties, such speed did him in and he often experienced injuries. So I refuse to race marathons. Okay, that's the excuse that I tell people.
