Since u didn't tell me wut elevation that was, I'm assuming it was at sea level... impressive none-the-less assuming I believe u. If u cud run that at altitude, thats good enough for a <20 placement out of 50,000+ runners at the Bolder Boulder. I do not believe u can perform anywhere near this level.

U didn't do so well in college huh? XD it will be one of the crowning achievements of my life if I can manage to maintain it thru to graduation, especially for a CompSci degree. At any rate, I see no reason to believe I won't graduate Summa Cum Laude.

Uh, no it wasn't my best race. It was most recent that was evaluated for time. I was running a 6:30 mile (2-3 miles and 5-10 mile hikes) in the Alps (Mont Blanc) in June right before their marathon. Is that higher than Colorado? =P I think it is. It also, smoked the crap out of my dogs when I took them hiking. Kid, my profession is to be fit. I jump into an area with 60-80 pounds, get into an assembly area, and then move 12-15km. Hit an objective, then move to a pick-up site. This does not include the hour and half of PT I did that morning. That is my job. I run longs distances for fun. So, I am pretty sure a computer science student is not in better shape than a US Army paratrooper.

How have I not done well in college? I could say I have a high GPA too. I just fine it amusing you are like "I have a 4.0 gpa." Good job, when you graduate you will have a great piece of paper. I almost have my masters, another great piece of paper. Good for you that graduating college is a crowning achievement for you. Too bad that you see the rest of your life as a downward decline.

I probably won't hit my crowning achievement until late 30s/40s, but then I might have higher ambitions than you. Good luck in life. Good luck in running.
