Man steroids were really something

 

I guess we just suck this cycle. 2016 Rio Table.

 

I can’t believe it’s the only track event until tomorrow morning. Wtf we watching tonight team?

 

I hate to be that guy buttttt I would dominate this race walking bullshit right here

 

u wanna race?

 

You see that guy out in front? That'd be me if we all were in a tmb walk race

 

Yeah, well you're nothing but a common jogger if that's the case.

Spoiler

The real ones know

 

For real though, walking like this for 4 hours seems like it would kill your hips

 

and knees

 

That and your knees. they're insane

 

This guy out here walking with a bag of groceries

 

I always wondered how the walkers even found out about the sport. I’d imagine they sucked at everything else they tried or were so obnoxious they get demoted to the walking team.

 

These athletes walking at this pace is inspiring

It reminds of when I got to fart the morning after drinking beer all day, but poop comes out. So I waddle to the toilet trying to keep the poop from running out

 

It used to be called pedestrianism hahaha

 

That'd be a good competition

Who can carry 2 12 packs, gallon of milk, 5 bags of groceries the fastest

 

And gotta close the car door/trunk without dropping anything

 

And fumble with keys to get the door unlocked

 

Dude in the lead has a satchel with his water in it

 

No auto closing allowed

Also gotta open a door to a house

 

And keep the dog from escaping.

 

And dignity.

 

And walk from the door to the kitchen with a kid hanging on one of your legs

 

I’ve walked like that before but I had to shit.

 

Speaking of all this defecating, didn't some speed walker crap his pants, pass out, and finish the race in the last Summer Olympics?

AHebrewToo you climb v7?

 

This speed walking is bull shit

 

Field hockey shootouts are cool as hell

 

FWIW wife-carrying is a thing

http://www.wife-carrying.org

 

The bags need to be packed full of things like olive oil, spaghetti sauce, canned tomatoes, etc.
The real question is… paper bags full of these things that rip the handles as soon as you take a step? Or plastic ones that feel like they’re going to sever your fingers?

 

This walking is over the top

Laughing so hard

 

lowkey one of the best events

 

Not sure what that Japanese guy just did, but his face then taking to the curb and then the commentator holding back laughter killed me

 

Plastic that feels like it'll slice off your hand

 

One time I had a plastic bag that had a couple of two liter sodas in it and it was only on my pinky. I lost feeling in that finger for a few days

 

That's grit

 

white walker hit a wall?

 

You have to do runs of each and top combined score wins

 

who has tonight's schedule

 

There’s the women’s beach finals and that’s kinda that of the more mainstream sports.
