23.4

That's my current Body-Mass-Index. This is really a bad value for a marathon runner, isn't it?! They say a BMI>25 is a over-weight, and starting from 30 it's Adipositas, wow... BUT, I have also read that "sporty" people also have to consider their heavy muscles which might contribute to a pretty high BMI of 25 or so... I'd actually be interested in the BMI of all these professional marathoners...

Hi Oliver,

I know a lot of professional marathoners. Their BMI is somewhere around the 6 - 8 % range (for men).
