Ok, I can see the pole-vaulting and the hockey, that will give you big thighs too but I'm surprised you're a better distance runner than sprinter. Most distance runners I know are stick thin...but that doesn't mean you can't run distance with powerful thighs.
the luminous grass of the prairie hides
feet lovely and still as sleeping doves,
porcelain bones strong enough to carry a life,
but weighty and unmovable
As black Dakota hills. ~ Riesa

Also, I know exactly what you mean with most distance runners being sick thin.

Nice to meet you DJ. God that jump takes a lot of guts.Here is one of my Dad (retired Coast Guard) and me after I graduated from Airborne School (slightly edited for privacy reasons):
And, as a bonus, one of me jumping out of a C-130...well, to be honest, it might be me. It's kind of hard to tell from a picture that was taken 1250' below
Keep safe.

Thanks Virgil, but jumping is the easy part... sitting in the aircraft on the way up, and watching the door open... that part still gets to me a little
that pic looks pretty cool.
Calvin: You can’t just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.
Hobbes: What mood is that?
Calvin: Last-minute panic.

I always love to see pictures like yours, thanks for sharing djy78usa.
Aww you're such an attractive couple,B!
I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

Thanks

Hey B-Mental, looks like we've got similar taste in headwear
How terrible of me :-(Oh, Lote, here I was thinking that I am unique
I sentence myself to one hundred lashes!
And you can administer it yourself!
There that will teach me!
I sent my Soul through the Invisible,
Some letter of that After-life to spell:
And by and by my Soul return'd to me,
And answer'd "I Myself am Heav'n and Hell :"
