I figured so, but either way, I feel it would be a waste of time.

Where does it say this claim? I have never heard of it used for endurance.

There is some info...I seem to remember some info on Avant about a recent study that showed it did nothing, though.

Rhodiola is pretty good at making fat available for energy and may increase oxygen extraction which would certainly help an aerobic athlete.
