This article isn't exactly on topic. But, the author does touch on the connection between marathoning and sex drive.  |

| Quote from modal on 5/1/2008 at 4:38 PM: To a marathoner, sex is far down the priority list. Usually, it ranks somewhere near choosing a good shoelace.
Good shoelaces are very important. |

Not for this one! I'm as addicted to running as (almost) anyone on here - but I have to draw the line somewhere! Good sex vs good shoelaces - what are you talking about?!
[agree with Jake though - good shoelaces are vital] |

You have to read the article that I linked above to appreciate the comment relating sex to choosing good shoelaces. Taken out of context, the quote conveys a very different message.

I would say my sex drive has reduced some... especially over the last 3 or so weeks. I am physically ready for my marathon taper and well... sex or relax on the couch... or better yet get to sleep an hour early... tough choices...

My brother (who has run a lot more ultras than the few I have) has 2 t-shirts which read:
shirt #1: "Marathoners Keep It Up Longer"
shirt #2: "Ultramarathoners Don't Have Time To Do It"
