Racewalking

[Ripper]

well... tomorrow i get to join the honorary ranks of the racewalkers... my track coach decided to put me in it (i just kind of jokingly said that i'd do it and he took me seriously) so i get to try it out.

so im doing the mile racewalk and the 3000m steeplechase tomorrow... should be a fun day

Don't be fooled. It's one of the most taxing events you can do. I'm in nowhere near good enough shape to do it.

Back when I was a distance runner and a well conditioned athlete in numerous grueling sports, I was tricked into entering a walking race. I did very, very badly and for the next three days, my muscles hurt so badly that I thought my butt cheeks would fall off.

And you don't even have the benefit of being cool while you're competing, because you can only look like a pansy when racewalking.

Don't let them scare you. You'll get something nice out of this I'm sure. Like a really toned behind.
