I saw this question in the running section, and I am wondering what the cyclists thoughts are (I am copying it word for word here so apologies to the original questioner):
cycling (at elite levels) is 100x more difficult than running in my opinion. i mean, TDF riders go 30+ mph CLIMBING THE FRENCH ALPS!!
people say the running:cycling ratio is approx 1:4, well in that case someone would need to run 500+miles at an extremely high speed to compare with TDF riders
i mean lance Armstrong ran the boston marathon. there is no way a a marathon runner could complete the TDF
no disrespect to runners, but cycling is so much more challenging, especially mentally
