I wonder if we can rival XKCD.

'There's a Darwin Award for that'

Then the cyclists and marathon runners can actually get some respect to make up for the free time they lost to training.

I dunno, I used to have seriously monster calves until I started heavy cycling and running. They're still OK but they definitely shrunk after I lost 30-40 pounds.
