i just read this article about how women are going to outperform men in distance running as well as other endurance events, and thought it was very interesting. by the way, this was written by a professional MALE triathlete.

Wendy Sternberg, Ph.D., an assistant professor of psychology at Haverford College in Pennsylvania. ``So while women may be more vulnerable to pain, they don't become disabled by it. In fact, men become more disabled by pain than women. So coping with the pain of a long-distance run may be easier for women.''

nothing against female runners like you, but guys on my cross country team outperform the girls by a lot. I dont know if you consider 3 miles a lot, but when the Varsity boys run, they finish at timesranging from 16-20 minutes, whereas the girls varsity, on the SAME course, get 19-23 minutes. Oh ya-- the boys Varsity team is 7 wins 4 losses, and the girls are 11 wins 1 loss, at the times just mentioned
