Well be prepared for the 5-10 year "surprise".  With time one's metabolism can become very
efficient at a given task.  The first five years it was easy to keep weight off.  Afterwards
I had to watch my diet again.  The standard metabolic rate for running is given as .75 kcal
per pound per mile.  I've estimated my rate at about .5 kcal after 16 years of running.
