Paula Broadwell Might Be Faster Than You
I am deeply ashamed (Deeply!) to admit that I have been enjoying following the growing scandal surrounding General Petraeus and his relations with Paula Broadwell. Some of this enjoyment is no doubt due to election news fatigue. A lot of it has to due with the fact there seem to be few real victims (aside from the spouses, naturally) and a growing cast of really curious characters.
One of the interesting points of this story (to me) is what a hyper achiever Broadwell appears to be. High school valedictorian and homecoming queen. West Point graduate. Two masters degrees. Best selling author. Lieutenant colonel in the Army Reserves. And Ironman triathlete.
Of course, all you people want to know about her is “How fast can she run?”
Lucky for you, the Wall Street Journal was able to find out for us!
She’s pretty fast, apparently.
Broadwell finished a half marathon in her hometown of Charlotte last November in 1:36:26, for a pace of 7:21 minutes per mile.
Petraeus is supposed to be pretty fast also, but, maybe not as fast as Paul Ryan. 🙂
11:36 is a 1:12 Paul Ryan Adjusted time. pretty solid
