That’s surprising

I did the London Marathon in 4 hours 35 mins when I was his age. At the time I played for a sunday morning pub team, trying to fit in training runs before work in the morning. He is a professional athlete with access to top quality training facilities. I’m not sure whether to feel pleased with myself or disappointed with him.
