If you could be an elite runner, would you?

If you could be an elite runner, would you? If the answer to this question seems obvious, you probably didn't think about it enough. Or, as a slightly different question, if you could be a full time, professional runner, would you?

What surface do you train on?

I would be interested in some discussion. What surface do you train on? What surface do you prefer? Do you agree with me that running on uneven surfaces make you a stronger runner? What are your experiences.

Anybody ever do a mile fun run just to see how quick you can knock out a mile?

Anybody ever do a mile fun run just to see how quick you can knock out a mile? I'd like to do it just once, but I think I'd feel a little foolish (for whatever reason).
