If she's an "animal" chiropracter, what's she doing working on people?

I precalled this, jokingly (despite it being a question from my stack, I've never bothered to watch the movie or read anything about it) and when it was the only logical choice, I laughed.

Let's see...a mile is 1.609 kilometers, the modern marathon is 26 miles, 385 yards, so even if the first marathon was shorter, it's still going to be around 40,000 kilometers.

It takes some pretty specialized knowledge before you can do the math - how long a marathon is (or how long the original was) and the relationship between a mile and a kilometer. I suspect that her math skills weren't the main issue. It would help to know that there is already a 10K race in the Olympics.

In other words, she's a chiropractor, but she thought it would be a better audition hook to say she's an animal chiropractor. I guess it worked.
