    Pray tell where might we find the source of your wisdom?

    Almost any reference book that covers the basics on physiology. For example,

    "Somewhat surprisingly, values for both static and dynamic lung function
    of accomplished marathon runners and other endurance-trained athletes were
    *no different* than values for untrained controls of comparable body size
    [three references provided]"

    ....
    "Although fatigue in strenuous exercise is frequently related to
    feeling `out of breath' or `winded', it appears that the normal capacity
    for pulmunary ventilation does not limit exercise performance"

    McArdle, Katch and Katch, "Exercise physiology".
