This is the main reason I've never seriously considered running myself. I've been with the project since 2001, and I've taken on many large-scale long-term editing projects, but there's always been the option of simply stopping what I'm doing when it becomes too tedious and doing something else instead. If I've made a definite commitment like running for ArbCom, on the other hand, I'd feel terrible if I dropped out partway through. And three years is rather a long time to feel terrible for.
For better or worse you would not be expected to participate in every case, or even the majority of them. For what little it's worth if you do run, you'll have my undivided support.
