Running And Sex!

I always get a good laugh whenever distance running is compared to sex. Indeed, there are similarities as i remember a short article published at RW way back that compares these two strange bedfellows:

• You don’t want to peak too soon
• Endurance is more important than speed
• Even-pacing is crucial. Fartleks are discouraged
• The more you speed-up, the more labored your breathing will be
• Rest is required between repetitions
• Warming up is desirable before plunging into action
• Have to deal with performance anxiety
• You eat whatever you want during long hauls
• You’re reaching the climax when you see the finish line
• It’s hard to achieve negative splits (Can you?)

Owws…:-)
