    I said 400m for the track and field was Javelin purely because I loved the battles between Steve Backley and Jan Zelezny in the 90's

    So lets have em then
    I loved those duels too. Sometimes Mick Hill would muscle in.

    My favourite track events were always 100m, 200m, 800m & 1500m. Little interest in the latter two these days. It's got to be the 100m, the blue riband event

    Field..........er..............um...........can't say I've got a favourite.

      He does. His documentary on the performance of black athletes/slavery recently was fantastic too. I love the bloke.

        I haven't seen that. I'll check it out.

        A pundit like him makes you really look forward to the football season, huh?

        Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



        May the Lord bless this post.

                Tom Fordyce, BBC:

                Britain's Keri-Anne Payne is at the front of the leading pack at the start of the third of six laps of the Serpentine. If you want to test yourself against these Olympians next time you're down your local pool, they're swimming each 100m in around 70 seconds. Try doing four lengths in that time, then imagine doing it a further 100 times. Yup.
                It certainly puts it into perspective.

                  I read this post as the commentator in the swimming was talking about long pink sausages. True story.
