I'm a pretty fast runner and my toes are so long they look like little fingers. They kind of gross me out.

So I'll probably be getting some kicks out of your replies.

Then im the slowest person on earth, except for people who have no toes. Even then it might be a close race.

All the impact damage on my feet and knee joints from jogging makes is too damn painful. Riding a bike however, is much less painful so I can still keep in good shape.

After playing soccer for a good number of years I find that, often, the best runners are the worst kickers.
So hopefully you don't get many kicks out of the replies, since you probably aren't very good at it ;)

Not saying the results aren't interesting, but how does a study with an N of only 24 ever get to print.

Hey, I used to have athlete's foot... But I have kinda bad arthritis in my knee... but stick me on grass and a comfortable pair of shoes and I can sprint with the best of 'em.

Most because I referee soccer and all I do is sprint, stop, sprint, stop, sprint, stop, etc. I've gotten good at it.
