Is it true that sex is equivalent to Running a marathon?!


Question: Is it true cause my friend told me that having sex once is the equivalent to running a marathon. Now I know there are many factors such as how long and how fast you go. So say that you have sex for an average of half an hour and you start at a steady pace then do outburts of speed but than go back to your steady pace. Is it true?

I have run a marathon. It was the hardest thing I ever did with my body. I even gave birth and that was only the equivalency of a half marathon... sooo.. no sex comes nowhere close to running a marathon. Unless you have sex all day or something but that's not possible. Just wait until you're 18 to find out ok...

it takes people hours to run marathons. if you can have sex for that long then more power to you.

Um I don't think so I heard that you can burn up to 200 calories in 30min of love making :)

I don't know but it would probably be an equivalent of a mile run for me. jk. It depends on how you control it and the rise you get ;) A marathon seems much too long!

I seriously doubt it. Have you seen a marathon runner's body? Generally very lean & wiry from burning so much energy running. And they don't run an actual marathon more often than once every couple of months.

Compare this to the body of someone whose only exercise is 30 minutes of vigorous sex on most days of the week. They could be anywhere from very overweight to skinny. It's certainly better than no exercise at all, but can't even be compared to running that sort of distance!!

Running a marathon takes the average person about four hours and nearly kills them
I have never come across a sex session that took four hours and nearly killed me or perhaps I have been missing out.
