Could running be a key to better sex? The ancestral and current reasons why that might be the case, by MartinGraff007
Men and women with faster half marathon times have longer ring fingers than index fingers, a sign of higher levels of testosterone.
However, such a body shape is not necessarily found in men who run. Ancestral men also engaged in"persistence hunting"—exhausting prey by tirelessly tracking it. Men who could successfully do this and provide food would also have been desirable to women. In modern days this is perhaps signaled by being able to run a long distance such as a marathon. An upright running gait or posture is also a signal ofin men.
Attractiveness in runners may also be due to how they are perceived. We see runners described as winners, warriors, or heroes, who have the grit and determination to keep on going, and battle through adversity to run a long distance. Again, such tenacity, perseverance, and the mental strength to not give up would have been perceived as indicative of being able to provide for and defend resources in our evolutionary past.
