Somewhat OT but an interesting self-experiment: > running it to death over a period of days. Yup. Superior endurance, particularly equatorially where walking upright reduces sun exposure. Walk, sleep, walk, sleep, walk, KILL, FEAST. Repeat as necessary. It's an attractive idea. To test it (very informally) one Saturday I got up and walked 14 km on an empty stomach. At the end, the first thing I had was a Belgian beer on tap. It was the most delicious beer of my entire life. Absolutely every bit of complexity in the brew came shining thru. It was frankly kind of amazing. YMMV.
