Interesting facts courtesty of Runner's World & other mags

I check out Runner's World and other magazines at the library. I like the little tidbits-y parts like:
1. For every two-pound gain in weight, the risk of developing arthritis increases nine to 13%
2. A sustained 10 percent weight loss will reduce lifetime medical costs of an overweight person by as much as $5,300
3. To determine how many calories you need, multiply your weight by 10. Add 20% of that number if you sit at a desk all day, 50% if you're moderately active or 70% if you're moving all day. Add the # of calories burned during your workouts. Reduce the total by 15%.
4. A 10-minute post-run ice bath's coldness will decrease swelling and inflammation and has an analgesic effect.
