@mrv86 If you're entering to run a marathon, you do know you're supposed to actually run the marathon course right? Public transport does not count, buddy :p

Well what can I say you caught me.

 

Nah, I barely exercise myself these days, just a 3 k jog around my neighbourhood’s park. I couldn’t and wouldn’t try a marathon, probably a 5/10 k someday.

 

I suspect those cheaters were mostly interested in taking a selfie or doing a live stream trough instagram, just like many people who go to the gym, do a couple of exercises and run 5 mins in the threadmill just to post about the “fit” lives.

Ah, those people who go to the gym to stand in front of a mirror and look at their muscles :lol:

Earthquake hit Morocco last night, already nearly a thousand deaths have been reported and that is absolutely going to rise :(

 

6.8 on the Richter scale as of now, which is insane when considering the most significant earthquake to ever hit Morocco was the 1960 Agadir earthquake at 'only' 5.8, which caused 15.000+ deaths..

Please don't call him a scientist :d 

 

He is someone who says things like "random planet A and random star B are in random angle X, so earthquakes might happen". Well, yeah, he is always going to be right if he predicts earthquakes to happen...because earthquakes will happen. I can also predict that there will be another earthquake in the next 12 months somewhere.

 

He says 500 things, and when 1 actually happens, he pretends that he predicted it, and lots of people fall for it. Luckily most don't.

    • Honestly, it’s not very clear what is happening in Italy — anything could happen. There is extremely high turnout, and no pollster, politician, or newspaper had predicted it; now they’re all there throwing out data. No one has any idea why people voted, also because it was very technical and almost empty polling stations were expected. It will be interesting to understand whether this is a protest vote against the government or a protest vote against the judiciary.

    • Congrats Diggins, well deserved! 👏   Too bad she fell on the last lap in the last race (as well as Karlsson also did x2).   For the future I would really like them to remove the bonus sprint points suring the race that almost makes more importance to the overall standings than the positions over the finish line. And get back to the same point system as the other FIS events. 30 gets points instead on 50, and 100-80-60... instead of this system. in this case Diggins deserves it and Sweden who of different reasons have missed pets of the season On purpose or not, does not deserve it. But it as it is now it may take 20 wins to catch up for one missed race (if the opponent is 2nd in each). Dahlqvist won the sprint cup without any individual wins (3rd overall) is one example of that.    There must be room to miss a race of any reason. If not, it Will not make people race more events, instead it might make skoters who already missed one weekend feel they are already too far behind so they light as well take less priority on the rest of the World cup season. Also skiiers who in Norway for example would be good enough for a top3 in the overall might not even be selected for many races due to the internal competition. Same for a skiier like Ebba Andersson who most likely would not qualify if she would be selected to go a sprint race. But she would still get a few points probably for rk 31-50, but because she would not make it in to the Swedish sprint team she Will lose a lot even compared to those who fail the sprint qualifications. Frida Karlsson another example, she would also probably have qualified most of the times but is most often not good enough to make the team. With more award to winning and making podiums and also less athletes scoring that would make it better I think. The scoring system in biathlon got some critics when they decided you have to count all races, but they at least increased the value of top positions meaning you could faster catch up a bad race/missed race, by a few podiums.
    • Great to see O’Connor on the podium again! Thats 4 major medals in the past 12 months (World Indoors x 2, Euro Indoors and World Championships).   Her strongest event is the javelin so she is going to continue to be a huge threat in the heptathlon this summer and she is still improving all the other events. Exciting times for her  
    • Congrats to Diggins winning the WC in her final season
