Kelly Sotherton's javelin throwing

[Redlife]

Did you see it??


30m?!


Good god!


As an example, my girlfriend, an amateur 1500m runner with no training in the event, has thrown that far. Sotherton is the Olympic bronze medallist in heptathlon.


How can someone who trains and works at an event professionally be so bad? From 2nd to 8th within one event. Nice work.

Kluft threw 46m.

Any pics/vids/links?

Yeah she totally buggered it with the javelin. What a joke!

[Rich]

Buggered what with a javelin? - sounds nasty!

I can't find any vids, and a static pic doesn't really do justice to just how funny it was.


Imagine a little kid who has never seen a javelin before and has no concept of how to throw one, throwing one. It was that bad.

Your signature, the second part was crossing my mind too. Niall's cool.

[Laz]

I used to out with a girl who competed in the javelin.










































But she chucked me.
