Channel-flippers sweat too

Regarding Reynold Dacon’s letter “Peak Baggers Are Losers” in response to “Been There. Done That. Once Again.” [Sept. 28]: People climb peaks, run marathons, bicycle centuries, swim channels, finish triathlons. I’d advise you to enlighten yourself by asking each one why they do it. Nah, it would be a waste of time, Reynold -- you wouldn’t understand their answers. Here’s a TV remote. Go back to your physical activities.
