It's not right!!!

I went to see my GP today over a number of small issues. I hadn't seen him for a few months - and he asked me about my running - was I still doing it? I told him that I had completed my first marathon in July (at age 72) . He said "How far was that 10klm- 14klm??" When I told him 42.2 klm , he said GET OUT OF MY OFFICE!!! I'VE GOT SICK PATIENTS TO SEE!
