Some of us do run them for "fun" ;) I hate running as an exercise (unless it's on trails, out in the woods, preferably while rainy and muddy), but I like the challenge of pushing past everything in your body and mind telling you to quit.

Yes, but I'm sure that the 4-hours of gym time, also includes a lot of exercise, which is not what the statement implies.

Many of his claims in 4HWW also required additional initially-unmentioned effort (as you so eloquently mention in your OP).

This tactic is common in tabloids with a majority female demographic ("Get your perfect beach body in 2 hours!").

I hope I'm proven wrong.
