    Between those two option I prefer the sprinters body, so I would rather have that.

    There's not a simple answer. Most of today's world class sprinters are doping. Bolt, Gatlin, Gay, Blake.... all differentiate in physiques.

    Back in the day, the 100m race looked like this:

    Now they look like cyborgs with all the dope they take plus advanced nutrition. Gatlin could've played football. Jesse Owens would've gotten smashed.


    I would like marathoner legs and bigger biceps.

    It depends on which sprinter and marathon runner you're referring to. :wink:

    Marathoner ... I've always wanted slim, muscular, well-defined legs. I have tree-trunk legs, genetics has been unkind. ;)

    I would say sprinter. But I ran track in high school, so I'm kinda biased.

    Are we talking in terms of aesthetics or performance? Because if it's the latter I'd pick marathon. Sprinting ain't worth *kitten* compared to 30+ miles...!

    Looks? Sprinter. Most marathoners are string beans. No thanks.

    If it was life or death? Sprinter. But to throw a wrench in the works id say a shot put or discus throwers body. I loved doing that when I was in middle school. One of the few girls that did in my middle school.

    Sprinter. I'd be thoroughly unhappy with a marathoners body.
