Fat, or chonky, or thicc, took some balls to go out and do that ridiculous thing for her team.

Major props.

The high five from the whippet was pretty cool too.

Would have been better if she actually tried

One of the sports commentators mentioned she was trying to avoid knocking down a hurdle, which would have hurt her more than her going slow and making it over all of them (which she did).

She knew that the internet would be cruel. She’d rather put herself on blast than have the team lose a point. She got any eligibility left and does UT need a shot putter?

  • Popular Post

She did not knock over a single hurdle.

better than I would have done.

Caught that on the CBS News tonight. That’s a great story. They said she finished like 19 seconds behind first place. Listen to the crowd cheer for her.

 

the final frames of that shot is comical.  its like a middle school athletic coach standing next to a bunch of teenage students.

Reminds me of a funny story.  One of my best friends in middle/high school was a hurdler.  As a childhood asthmatic, I hated running, so I had not even dabbled in any kind of track event, even though I was built for it.

But one day we were dicking around after school at the track and I was casually hopping the hurdles etc.  So my friend was like "try it, and, pro tip, you need to lean forward as you raise your leg over the hurdle."  So, I did, like one hurdle at a time and then decided to actually run the thing.

At about the third hurdle, I had kind of gotten the timing down, or so I thought, leaned forward and raised my leg, while going pretty good.

And bashed my face on my knee/thigh.  My nose exploded in blood.

That is awesome.   Team first.  Novel concept, huh?

Anyone one talking shit about her is a lame-assed cocksucker.

Parliament ashamedly raises his hand.  I got too surly too fast.  Yeah she knew the internet was gonna make fun, and she did it anyway.

she did try, she tried not to hurt herself. also what was the point of her going balls out. it's not like she was going to remotely challenge the 2nd to last place finisher. she was going to finish last no matter how hard she tried. the goal was to secure the point, which she did.

i'm sure volunteers were asked of the entire team. it's cool that she was the one who raced it.

unfortunately Belgium got relegated. still a cool story:

at least she prevented a DQ and they didn't finish in last!

Pretty fucking cool.  Cool chick, stepped up and helped her team.  I'd happily buy her a big old Belgian beer....with which she could surely outdrink me.  

Great story, thanks for posting.

Wrong one.

Regarding the story, hell yes.  It's not a reality show, she did it to keep her team in the meet.  I suppose there weren't any options for scoring points so it didn't matter, but I'd be fucking pissed if the high jumper or the 100m/200m chick begged off.

Woulda been cooler if at the end she'd grabbed one of the little scrawny women by the ankle and flung her about halfway across the field.

I wonder if she was the tallest woman on the team and took the race because she would be able to get over the hurdles "the easiest"?

 

Bummer they were relegated anyway.

Well go off and be an American then since you obviously don't appreciate everything that life in Belgium has provided you.

Pssh.  Belgium.  Not even a real country.  A hodgepodge of Flemish, Walloons, and Dutchmen with a shitty sense of direction.

"Workouts are determined by the athlete's age and experience level."

I can just imagine some Surly posters calling up, "hey, Callie, I'm a 50 year old dude who can run a mile at a brisk 15 minute pace. Can you put a workout together for me?"

That is a boss move right there.  Helping your team, and then knowing you're going to subject yourself to whatever the innerwebz has to offer.  Smart thought to get out there in front of it and own it.

And the good news is they probably don't sell any of that damn vegemite in Belgium either.

I'll let you know what she says

The cheers remind me of the 4 year old swim meet and it takes a minute for some of them to cross 25 meters. The last one always gets the loudest cheers 😄
