TDR V2 Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Watched some new sports today: Windsurfing - didn't realise the board doesn't touch the water Dressage - WTF is that all about, the commentary was hilarious Gymnastics - Jesus they are good at what they do, spinning around upside down and still managing to land on their feet. Simone Biles is on her own planet I usually only watch the track and field events Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should make it like the swimming medleys, with different styles - one mile walking, one mile hopping, one mile crawling, one mile freestyle silly walk, etc. Edited August 3 by mjmooney 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LakotaDakota Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Always amazes me how many runners have big chunky necklaces & watches on. Sure i doub't it causes that much additional drag but in a race that lasts less than 10 seconds and can be won/lost but hundredths of a second why on earth would you want to carrying potentially an additional half a kilo with you down the track.

That and the Flo-Jo nails that's still somehow a fashion among runners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
