[quote=Anonymous]I have done many marathons, and in my 40s prefer trail races (which are usually 50K plus). I am sore for a few days after, but then I'm fine. I do swim and weight train, as well. I can understand the concern about pushing your body, but I don't think it is nearly as stressful on your body as say carrying an extra 5, 10, 15, 20, + lbs every day and all of the stress of that on your heart, joints, etc. Consistent distance running (or the like) is definitely a lifestyle and tied to personality characteristics. I understand why some wouldn't understand the choice. [/quote]
