The ancient Romans were small in stature, so I realized today that I could totally have kicked Caesar's ass.
Yeah, baby! America! #1!

Average height of a Roman Soldier -- 5 foot one inch. I doubt if you could have kicked his ass though. The Roman Army marched about twenty miles a day each soldier carrying his kit, weapons and a wooden stake. Then, after twenty miles they halted and built a camp surrounded by a wall and ditch. Might tough those Romans.

Ok, but I type faster than Caesar ever dreamed.

There' a good chance you could have. I think Caesar wasn't all that well conditioned preferring to spend most of his time at his palace.
