Re: Now I Know Why I Avoided The White Lake Marathon....
Bill Rogers (former US marathon record holder) started running because someone stole his motorcycle and he still needed to get to work!
I chose my house because of the commute -- I have a good all weather bike route, also good for running or roller skiing (dry land xc ski training) to work. I wish I could ski on real snow right out the front door, like they do in Norway... driving to snow is seriously impacting my hypomiling (reducing miles).
I don't see any Hummers at the xc ski areas. Those folks all go to the downhill areas. Lots of Subaru's, an occasional hybrid. I did a running race this summer & I noticed a few others came on bicycles. I would guess that the average hybrid sedan driver is more active than the average large SUV driver.
