I have been going to counceling to overcome my insecurities, but I still slip up every once in awhile.
DonTickles said:But that's cheating because you know where point A and point B are, a TRUE test would be running naked without even knowing you're in a race, like those turtle races where they have no idea what's going on, they just know that everyone is screaming something at them to win, which really just scares them all into hiding in their shells.
Seriously though, I agree that the amount of events for some sports (like swimming all those different styles, and the huge variety or running/walking events) is too much. We need more interesting variety, rather than boring repetitive variety. We need Olympic obstacle courses. I want to see Bolt climb a cargo net, swing over a mud puddle, and walk a balance beam in the middle of that 200m run. The other thing I want to see is more Biathlon like events. Have runners carrying rifles and have to stop and shoot targets, or even a cycling Biathlon. "Oh no, Sanchez missed his last target, he has to do a penalty lap! Cancellara hits all 5, he's going to take the win! Tough luck for Sammy, Fabian takes the Olympic gold in the Cycling Biathlon Road Race..." Now that would be fun to watch.

From CN article said:Castaño, winner of the Vuelta a Zamora, was at home yesterday when police officers of the Guardia Civil came to search for - and found - doping substances......Castaño himself denied this on Biciciclismo.
"That is a lie," he told the website. "They did not find anything but recovery products.
dimspace said:im so glad i didnt say that...
Kerbdog said:I suppose it depends on what type of "Recovery products" were in his posession. Are they on the banned list etc? I dont know so cant be sure.
In fairness to them Sangria is quality tasty stuff.
