    I was asking the commenter to explain what a ‘better’ runner is supposed to mean? And tou perhaps was answering something else…

      Better doesn’t always equal faster.

      Better can equal going further.

      Better can equal being more efficient.

      Efficient means using less calories to do the same thing.

        Sure. But you then need to show the data that supports those points

          Can you please show us what connects your data to being a success as an endurance hunter? Because “men hold more records running a specific distance faster than women do” is not in any way an indication of hunting success.

          Do you think Olympic target shooters make the best hunters when it comes to guns and bows?

            I never said anything about exactly what makes a good hunter. I was making a counterpoint to the quote of the article
