I wish the administrator would remove these sorts of posts by Trolls. You are adding nothing to the discussion.

In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[2] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[3]

If you talk to or are a marathon runner you appreciate following great safety rules, being aware of where you are running or walking and not "feeling special". It appears that both amateur Bikers and Walkers have a sense of "entitlement" while SERIOUS competitors in these programs are fun to be around.
