"she's" a man.

2019-08-10 19:33:34 UTC  

MA you’re an idiot

2019-08-10 19:33:55 UTC  

the above is true REGARDLESS of gender; manly out competes 'fit'

2019-08-10 19:34:21 UTC  

No it doesn’t

2019-08-10 19:34:23 UTC  

@ManAnimal Not necessarily.

2019-08-10 19:34:34 UTC  

exceptions?

2019-08-10 19:34:35 UTC  

Ideal example ... marathon run.

2019-08-10 19:34:35 UTC  

And there isn’t a proper definition for it anyway

2019-08-10 19:34:49 UTC  

That’s just such a stupid thing to say

2019-08-10 19:35:00 UTC  

that isn't a competion in the strictest sense though

2019-08-10 19:35:12 UTC  

Lots of fit girls will be faster than dudes with tons of muscle ... for obvious reasons.

2019-08-10 19:35:17 UTC  

nascar is technically a competition

2019-08-10 19:35:35 UTC  

but it is less about one on one rather than person vs course

2019-08-10 19:35:50 UTC  

there is very little direct feedback

2019-08-10 19:36:07 UTC  

to *win* a marathon is not just to finish it. It's to finish it *first*...

2019-08-10 19:36:30 UTC  

correction. Finish FASTEST

2019-08-10 19:36:47 UTC  

you get the point

2019-08-10 19:36:53 UTC  

run your best practice time during the race

2019-08-10 19:37:09 UTC  

You can win without finishing it.

2019-08-10 19:37:13 UTC  

as in everything, you can do everything right yet still lose

2019-08-10 19:37:24 UTC  

You just have to be ahead of everyone else at that current stage, when it ends.

<:BIGBRAIN:501101491428392991>

2019-08-10 19:37:56 UTC  

but the best you can do is your fastest time. if you never met a certain time in practice runs, you aren't going to sudden race faster during the race

2019-08-10 19:38:54 UTC  

and?

2019-08-10 19:39:02 UTC  

it;s still a competition against others

2019-08-10 19:39:03 UTC  

this is different than in say a sport like hockey where what is required to win is a function of how you MATCH with the other team

2019-08-10 19:39:34 UTC  

strengths vs weaknesses means that you fair better against one competitor than another

2019-08-10 19:39:48 UTC  

but in a marathon, it's you vs the course

2019-08-10 19:40:00 UTC  

you don't worry about everyone else

2019-08-10 19:40:06 UTC  

it's you versus the performance of others on that course

2019-08-10 19:40:10 UTC  

you just do YOUR fastest

2019-08-10 19:40:27 UTC  

but you aren't comparing yourself moment by moment

2019-08-10 19:40:28 UTC  

and then the person that does the objective fastest wins

2019-08-10 19:40:45 UTC  

you are simply executing as if you were in your best practice

2019-08-10 19:41:01 UTC  

it's STILL against the best of others

2019-08-10 19:41:06 UTC  

but when it is based on the other guy, your practice won't do

2019-08-10 19:41:11 UTC  

even if it IS your best

2019-08-10 19:41:21 UTC  

there is just less direct interfacing between u and the other competitors
