We already run a marathon by turning it into a series of sprints.

we completely fail to run a marathon by turning the notion of distance covered into completely fictional metric, and anathematize the idea of setting targets beyond that two weeks since that requires collaboration and forethought. by attempting to run a marathon in a completely stateless way we end up walking in a brownian fashion but get thoroughly exhausted by the process even though we aren't getting anywhere really.
