    Ooh, I like that one!

    Backwards running would be interesting...
    That actually sounds like a somewhat legit idea. Hilarious, but definitely well within the bounds of real competitive sport.

    I have actually seen people backwards walking and running ... my guess is that it strengthens a different muscle group...I don't run, so I don't know...

    The Olympics are fun when they are on.  I prefer the Winter Olympics.

    This is a common, normal thing in the Pacific Northwest/Southwest, not nonsense, lol. ;)
    In fact, Eddie Vedder is an axe thrower.

    Lol. I have to admit that me and this one friend of mine used to have slapping contests once in a while when we were drunk and thought it was hilarious. But nothing like that!!! Ours was just for silliness' sake! We didn't whomp each other like that or hurt each other. :lol:
