Strength, endurance, speed, control, etc. -- what measure of sport have you most excelled in?
That's been done. Or, that's been would have been done if could be done, as it were. Mars makes a marvelous fulcrum I hear.Jimmy Snyder said:Give me a lever and a place to stand and I'll move the earth.

I was going to post something like arildno's reply, since high levels of strength, endurance, speed, control, etc. don't seem to apply to anything I've done (not that that applies to him). I do play tennis, but I'm not very good at it. And, I did quit smoking for a few days recently, but have smoked (let's see) ~ 11 cigarettes today. Then there's my falafel, the eating of which requires certain measures of endurance and control. But that's not quite a sport.Loren Booda said:Strength, endurance, speed, control, etc. -- what measure of sport have you most excelled in?

Should we send flowers to any particular location, or just to our mistresses/paramours?Chi Meson said:I'm doing the Pisgah Mountain trail race tomorrow. http://pisgahmtntrailraces.blogspot.com/
I'm doing the 24k but my wife is running 50k. I'll try to get a video of one of my descents, but in doing so I'll probably break my phone.
And my neck.
So, be foreshadowed: if you don't hear from me within a few days, then I nearly died for you! Send flowers.
