Why would you run 35 marathons? That's crazy. I lift then run 2-3 miles daily but 26 is insane once let alone regularly. I did like 22 once and it sucked so I learned my lesson never to do that again.

After being a runner in high school, I started running again at 35 to get back in shape. 20 years ago, at 41, I ran my first marathon (New York City) with a friend and have just kept at it.

Couple of interesting marathon facts. The record is around 2:02 now. I believe 10 people have run sub-2:06, and they all come from like a 2-sq. mile radius.
Think about that time. 2:02. Know what splits that works out to?
4:41. Repeated 26 and a quarter times.
4:41 would win you the Boys Mile or 1600M in most high school track meets (not state finals, but regular 3-school meets during the season.)
For instance, here's the dual-meet results from Roswell-Milton (two Class AAAAAA schools near me) this year:

This is my top choice for a color combo if I end up ordering a cab. A couple of questions (this would be my first Porsche):
1) Is the PSE a must-have? I currently drive an M4 convertible, and since I have the roof down 90+% of the time, I find the stock exhaust to be sufficient.
2) How do you like the 14-way seats? Nick Murray insists they are harder and less comfortable than the 18's, but I haven't seen this observation from others.
3) Would you recommend a manual or PDK for a daily driver with moderate daily stop-and-go commuting traffic for 15-30 minutes each way (depending on which office I go to), and 1-2x backroad drives per week? I have driven 5-series BMW's with manuals, but the M4 has DCT (which I do like). Part of me would like to try a manual again, especially in a high performance car.
4) Given the added weight of the cab, did you add (or consider) PDCC?
Thanks!
