[QUOTE="Kmart Kommando, post: 3804080, member: 39915"] The people running marathons have been doing anything they can to raise their Con score, as well as doing whatever they can to give them bonuses to their endurance checks. They have a much higher probability of making the first couple dozen checks than Joe Blow with 10 Con who never runs at all. Also, someone running in a marathon isn't really running. There isn't a person alive that can actually run, like flat out run, for more than a mile or two. Long distance runners pace themselves, so they don't fail those Con checks and get tired. For flat out running, the Run(x4) of a 40ft movement (human with the Quick trait, +10 move) is faster than a 4 minute mile. Run(x5) with a 30ft move is slightly less than that. That is pretty close to human potential. Which makes sense, people who dedicate themselves to running fast, well, run fast. Level 1 Commoner with Run and Endurance can be an Olympic sprinter.
