Apparently it involves complimenting Pam's profile pic, so you should probably start there.

Can I get some stat padding?!?!?!
"Carter's 25-game hitting streak isn't any normal streak. He's 46 for 97 (.474 average) during the run, adding 16 walks and compiling 81 total bases in the process. I'm out of superlatives for what he's doing." - Kevin Goldstein

None of them would survive a 5-mile run. Twisted ankles, pulled hamstrings, strained intercostals...
