For a variety of reasons, from our large gluteal muscles, to our ability to cool ourselves, humans are very tough endurance athletes. We're not so good at sprinting, though.<br /><br />I stumbled upon this article yesterday, and being the proud owner of a human body, I wanted to take a moment to revel in the superiority of it for distance running - our chosen sport is the athletic activity that we humans excel at compared to our fellow species.<br /><br />Enjoy yourselves out there. You were born to run.oldLobohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08097554454149302402noreply@blogger.com
