That only works if you don’t get the very common entropy of illness or disability.

Like tell that life advice to many people who i know who are bedridden in their 20s from lifelong chronic illness.

Why such hostility when you were asking a question about how people can live to that age and run?

There are countless things that can get in the way, but if you're lucky with your health, that's what it takes to live old and be able to run.

sorry if it came off as hostile, not my intention.

but yeah i wasn’t asking for your opinion on life advice but just if this was a legitimate article.
