The American dudes who played sports in high school and are now in their 20s and 30s haven’t had their health collapse yet.
European cops are way more intimidating than American cops, by and large. I’m not trying to be jingoistic, I’m just saying that running after someone who is carrying something is the version of the national sport the vast majority of us actually play.
European cops are way more intimidating than American cops
That has not been my experience
There are way too many American cops operating on the notion that they have far fewer rules of engagement than we military servicemembers did in Afghanistan and Iraq. Human life in general appears to have very little value to them.
I do not recall ever meeting a similar police officer in Europe, I’m sure they probably exist, but are definitely far less common.
Being a vicious cold hearted murderous bastard doesn’t necessarily depend upon their level of physical fitness
Your national sport is walking from office to a car to drive home to sit on a couch. Average American walks three hundred meters per week, the second you stop training for the sport you played once a week as a child 10 years ago, you stop being able to run any reasonable distance.
I guess another national sport of yours is overestimating how strong and powerful you actually are.
The only reference that that I could find quickly googling, is the repost of repost of repost of some unspecified study that someone did, measuring readings from some unspecified fitness bracelet. Even if we assume it exists, even if we assume it measures correctly, even if we assume it’s not an ad for something, it is a study about people health conscious enough to buy and regularly wear a fitness bracelet. And among this cohort, the average is just 3.2 km.
I agree, it’s a bit more that 300 meters, but not by much actually.
I took the lowest end measurement of the worst cohort in the study, actually, and even then they did over ten times the amount of walking you claimed. That’s not a ‘bit’ wrong, that’s off by an entire order or magnitude. And for the record, the entire rest of your post is made up as well- the studies are easily available, the fitness bracelet was given to them, it clearly delineates what bracelets are used, and a wide variety of ages, sexes, occupations, etc etc were studied.
The average american has never walked a meter in their whole life. We’ll be dead in the cold cold ground before we measure distances in things easily divisible by 10.
Yeah, that was a bad idea when the military members were being sacrificed to protect profits. It’s worse now that they will be used to attack their fellow citizens at home.

The average american walks about 2 miles a day. 22km a week is definitely not 300 meters.

Don’t join the military then.

I mean, yeah, good advice in general.
