i like doing shorter races like 5k's and sprint triathlons, but some of my friends are into marathons and ironman's, and i just hate the idea of going for that long.

    Do what makes you feel good about yourself man! I only run 5k's myself and am very proud of myself. I climb small mountains too but have no desire to conquer Everest!

    I've never run *any* race. I hate running, so I probably hate all races. I want to try a 5k though. Especially a tough mudder or warrior dash.

    I'm only interested in doing races with man-made obstacles. Non-obstacles races are lesser races in my eyes and should have their own separate, not equal, status.

    Warrior Dash was GREAT!! I couldn't *run* the whole thing (lost my inhaler early on and didn't wanna die alone out in the woods), but had a BLAST!

    This is not a "race". It is an obstacle course. 5Ks are for 2-pump chumps. :tongue:

    This makes you a racist. No race is superior to another race. I should report your *kitten*

    Scientific studies have shown that races with walls to scale and junk cars to climb are physically superior races to those without. They are the next evolutionary stage of average races involving only running.

    They are the future. They are Cursus Superior.

    Your race is superior.

    Without a tee and a medal, how can you prove it? A question for the ages.

    He said 'in my eyes' - totally acceptable.

    I love long distance races where I can slow down to a walk sometimes and take pictures and savor the day - im like the epicurian of runners. For me, running any distance without stopping to take pictures is a huge obstacle

    Also- running on the sidewalks in new york IS an obstacle course.

    hills, moving targets, more hills, slopes, bent up cracked uneven sidewalks, horse poop in the parks, loose basement doors on the sidewalk, random wild children appearing out of nowhere, suddenly blocked paths where you have to climb over fences, stairs, more stairs, chinese delivery bikes, drunk people, i could go on

    one of the best though is running through a big group of pigeons and scattering them everywhere bwhahahaha

    yes Im a child

    You've been reading "The Bell Curve" again, which tells me they've been secretly teaching you to read. *reported*
