Track & field funnies (Read 484 times)

    Found this while surfing.  I thought the clips were pretty funny.  Then again I'm kind of a track nerd.

    Here is my next big running goal.  Interim running goals - sub 19:00 5K, sub 40:00 10K.  Pie in the sky running goal - sub 5:00 mile (yeah right!! if I lose 20 lbs and 20 yrs in a time machine maybe...)

      What are these people doing wandering onto the track in front of runners?

      PBs since age 60:  5k- 24:36, 10k - 47:17. Half Marathon- 1:42:41.

                                          10 miles (unofficial) 1:16:44.

       

        some were painful to watch.  but I wish I could read about that hurdle race where the guy just plowed through the hurdles without regard to his lane.  that amused me. 

        In an infinite universe, the one thing sentient life cannot afford to have is a sense of proportion
