<p>I think you'll bury us all TW. I would not concern yourself with stuff like this when you can run ten miles. I consider myself in better shape than most my age; a LOT better shape than many, and I would not dream of attempting to run ten miles.</p>

<p>I'm 5'5" and weigh about 126 lbs. When I did the test yesterday after running 10 miles and being numb, cold, and stiff, I "plunked" down on the floor not using any body parts; but due to my serious back problems, my back sure did hurt after I "hit" the floor. I couldn't get up without using a knee and one hand. Today, being thawed out and not so stiff, I didn't "hit" the floor nearly as hard, and I was able to get up just using one hand - so I guess I scored a 9. Now, maybe I WILL live…</p>

<p>Well I clicked on that link and had a read, and it's quite a spooky read at that.</p>
<p>I know if I tried to sit on the floor I would get so far (I am 179 cms tall with </p>
<p>my body weight at 65kg's), then gravity would take over ending with a</p>
<p>thump on the floor. Maybe those 159 volunteers that died during the </p>
<p>course study, unknowingly forced their spine up through the tops</p>
<p>of their skulls when their bodies hit the floor...just sayin'.</p>

<p>Getting down was easy, I just fell down. Took six guys to get me up. Not surprisingly, the same number of pall bearers at your average funeral.</p>

<p>Great test. When you think about it, it really reflects a lot about the shape you are in.</p>
