That's 90,000 calor...Perspective is everything. That's 90,000 calories and 800 odd miles you WOULDN'T have done had you stayed on the couch. <br />Comparing yourself to Karnazes is setting the bar a bit high...how many people could do what he's done? <br />Oh that's right. <br />He's the only one. <br />EVER. : D<br /><br />Given your current post about being sick, it's evident to me (with that wonderful 20/20 hindsight we all possess) that your body was fighting a bug on the day you wrote this. You weren't symptomatic yet, but your pulse was up, and your times weren't what you expected.

Just think, d...90,000 calories is 26 or so pounds. Just think, dont take in a whole lot more than you used to and the pounds will float away.<br /><br />Also, at our ages dont put a lot of weight into the times.
