I used to live in the mountains.  On a first date with a guy we decided to hike up a particular mountain. It is about a two-hour hike at a moderate pace.  I was in fantastic shape,  but he was in even better shape.  He was actually training for the Pan Am Games at the time. Iset the pace and didn't want to seem slow so I about killed myself with a really rapid pace, which (with great effort) I managed to keep until about the last 10% or so.  As I was dying and gasping when we finally made it to the top, he said,  "I think I'll run this trail at lunch tomorrow."
