Run 26 miles
Swim 5 miles
26 miles is a marathon.
If you get tired while swimming, there's actually a risk of drowning. Running just lets you pass out!
just float but that also does depend on your body type but still
Mr. Dunn brings up the excellent point of dying in the swimming event. Passing out only results in minor scrapes and bruises in the running option.
I hear drowning is the most peaceful way to kick the bucket (and swallow its contents).
ok try holding your breath or having water go down the windpipe neither are very nice now try both at the same time
is this even a debate right now.. running or anything else? obviously running lets be serious!
Better workout.
swimming is a full body work out.. and it never said you can't do it over a long period of time! ;)
at least i won't drown
I can't run for the life of me, but I'm a pretty good swimmer.
Although I love to run, feel like swimmin today:)
it never said that it cant be a swimming pool that's shallow and you cant stant and in what time and that you cant take breaks
i swim at least 5 miles every day in season..
im a cross country runner so ill take my chances in a marathon
apparently you people don't realize how god damn slow the average human swims... you'd be in the water for hours working far more muscle with far less oxygen.
I plain enjoy running more than swimming plus I would like to run a marathon
At least when I pass out running I won't die.
You can just swim slow for 5 miles but you have to run the full 26 miles
yeah i cant swim very good... could use the exercise
