High-performance sport today has produced a question still without an answer: What is the limit of the human body? The original marathoner, the Greek of legend, died of fatigue from running 42 kilometers. American Dean Karnazes, crossing the California plains alone, managed to run ten times more in 75 hours. A Physical Education teacher, while discussing with the class the text about the American marathoner's capacity, drew on the board a straight track of 60 centimeters, which would represent the referred route. If Dean Karnazes' route were also on a straight track, what would be the scale between the track made by the teacher and the one covered by the athlete? (A) 1:700 (B) 1:7000 (C) 1:70 000 (D) 1:700 000 (E) 1:7000000
