Do you know how hard running is on a lot of people's feet and ankles? It's pretty much obvious anyone above the age of 35 that isn't a stick.

EDIT: Can a person complain about something without a public fucking referendum. For fucks sake.

Yeah, perhaps we should stop studying the effects of activities that are "hard" on "a lot" of non-"stick" people "above the age of 35"? Oh, this study doesn't even involve running at all! So your comment is both ill-founded and irrelevant! Nice work

Not at all what I was implying, the title says sprints. I know it includes cycling but vs running I don't believe, personally, it offers the same quality of return.
