Sarah Palin Says She Could Beat President Obama in Long Distance Race
Sarah Palin is featured in the latest issue of Runner's World. Sarah Palin is a dedicated runner. She's dedicated enough that she runs in temperatures of 20 to 30 below zero. Sarah Palin tells Runners World, "Winter isn't as much fun, but even when it's 20 or 30 below and pitch black, I still try to get out."
In the interview Sarah Palin also says she could beat President Obama in a long distance race. When asked if she could beat the President, Sarah Palin said, "I betcha I'd have more endurance. My one claim to fame in my own little internal running circle is a sub-four marathon."
She would challenge the President in basketball but it would have to be H-O-R-S-E instead of one-on-one because she is worried about President Obama's height advantage.
Our President, I'm told, is a runner. Would you ever run with him?
I would, absolutely. I would and people have asked if I'd ever challenge him to one-on-one because we both love basketball. But look, he towers over me and I wouldn't be complaining about an unfair advantage there, but maybe I'd do better playing H-O-R-S-E with him than one-on-one.
What about in a race? Could you beat the president?
I betcha I'd have more endurance. My one claim to fame in my own little internal running circle is a sub-four marathon. It wasn't necessarily a good running time, but it proves I have the endurance within me to at least gut it out and that is something, if you ever talk to my old coaches they'd tell you, too. What I lacked in physical strength or skill I made up for in determination and endurance. So if were a long race that required a lot of endurance I'd win.
