Are journalists supposed to be this healthy?

As I near the end of my first week working as a reporter in the insurance industry, I've learned some interesting and important things.

Virtually all of the journalists alongside me are superfit - in the exercise sense I mean.

Not that I'm in any way suggesting my new colleagues are ugly, far from it.

No sooner has one reporter finished talking about recently completing a half-marathon, then another swiftly announces they are training to do the same.

And generally speaking, the times I've heard being bandied about are pretty respectable.

I've even heard talk of triathlons, boxing matches and such like. All scary stuff
