Clearly you have never ran more than a mile. There is something called pacing. You run as fast as you can, but only so fast that you can keep that pace the entire race.
Why would the op put something sarcastic as his full post? And more importantly, who would vote to homepage that? This website is meant to post truths, not stupid things like this. So don't vote down on something when I correct him, I think he was just naive, not trying to be sarcastic.
It wasn't a particularly good joke. Anyway though the majority can easily be wrong. I bet if this post had 200 votes up and 5 down, people would stop and think before they voted it down. People are less inclined to notice the sarcasm if the post already has a negative score
Haha. I'm a marathon runner myself. U found this pretty funny because everyone tells you to start off slow.

It's posted in the jokes group...
It isn't like this would be the first joke on the site
Well, it got thumbed down a lot, so not many people took to this joke.
