Girl in the glasses on the left is straight hating. Girl on the right is reconsidering her sexual orientation.

Serial: Cybernetic: Tats aren't really my thing, but that little Australian flag that she's got is pretty cute.

Except that's probably just a sticker or a wash-off "tattoo".

that's ok, i would help her wash it off if needed...in general i will just say, yes please...

thisiszombocom: oh and while she has nice fair skin, id still prefer lolo

yeah, but unlike lolo, i haven't heard of this aussie being batshiat insane. and let's not forget the steve mcnair rule about crazy, olympics or no olympics

Katarina Witt

/winter counts, right?

I would commit multiple acts of murder to get my body to look like hers. How can anyone think that super-thin is more attractive than actual fitness?

Also, loved the hair ribbon.

Yeah, I'm totally in love with her.

HotWingAgenda: Before the slow-mo, she doesn't look like she's hurdling, so much as teleporting through the hurdles.

With the slow-mo (right at crotch level from in front of them, jeez) I forgot to think about running.

All I could think about was what was down under.

She's hot, but hottest hurdler ever?

Subby obviously wasn't at the 2005 Special Olympics qualifier in Raleigh.

She looks like she'd be incredibly fun in bed.

Well, yeah. And the fact that she did noodz

What she looks like up close when she isn't smiling.


Sorry guys.

cute attention whoreing hurrdler is cute and good at hurrdling!!

I hate you all.



/you're welcome

ChrisDe: Gold medal for subby. Nice find.

Not really. Everything you see here is just reddit plus two days. Seems like it would be an easy way to get easy greens though.

Olympian, amazing body, Aussie accent ...

Those alone put her in the 'dangerously hot' category.

FriarReb98: I'll never have sex with her.
But GOD DAMN, would I ever enjoy it if I did!

I dunno.
Maybe she's not that good in bed.

I predict high ratings for women's track and field this year, as long as they show less of the scary looking Americans

I know I'm getting old because I was thinking "She looks like the kind of person that would be kicking you while you're trying to get some sleep."

Others to look for this summer at the games:

Javelin:

Don't get me wrong, I really love my girlfriend, but given the opportunity, I would give that woman the best 23 seconds of her life...

Yep. They are scary.

I've gotten with quite a few track girls but never a hurdler. Best were mid-distance girls, but I'm still not convinced hurdlers wouldn't be better.

Allison Felix is cuter than hell.

The Muthaship: thecpt: Best were mid-distance girls

I ran the 800 (poorly), hardest race in track. No surprise those chicks can bring it.

I always believed the 400 hurdles were the hardest eventbin track, but the 800m came in a close second.

The Muthaship: Mr_H: always believed the 400 hurdles were the hardest eventbin track, but the 800m came in a close second.

I never ran the 400 hurdles, so I defer to you on that. The 800 was way harder than the 1600 or 3200 though, IMO

Thank goodness I lived in PA where we only had to do 300im in highschool. With respect to the 800 which seems like the biggest head game of a race ever, I cannot imagine something harder than adding 100 meters to that.

/Yes i got destroyed on the last hurdle once. It was awful.

Everyone knows the hardest race in track is the 20 km racewalk.

My coach used to describe the 800 as this: Sprint until you cant sprint anymore, then sprint for another 400 meters.

Just watching those races made me cringe.

Try doing the Steeplechase. Those barriers don't give when you catch your trail leg. Trust me, I know.

My friend who transitioned from cross country to track did the 800m and the Triple Jump, two of the hardest events in track. He said that the key was taking it 'easy' in the first lap and then burning it down. I think you would almost have to have XC experience to do it well. I did 100m, 200m - I can sprint but have no endurance so 800 and higher was right out.

I'd beat her to the finish line if you know what I'm saying.

The only true spectator sport for T&F IMO. Yeah it looks tough and I never want to run 2000m competitively, but it was so rare even in College that I don't consider it. Most the runners I saw compete in it just stepped on it and jumped off.

I ran it pretty regularly in college, 3K steeple. First few laps my form would be fine, by the end it was pretty much do anything to get over the barriers.

/never took a dive in the water jump though

HeathenHealer: Try doing the Steeplechase. Those barriers don't give when you catch your trail leg. Trust me, I know.

I never caught my trail leg on a hurdle without eating it (though I was really bad), though the fact that you can catch your lead heel on one and knock it out of the way instead of just plowing into it I'm sure helps.

Fair enough, but a great smile, fun personality, and killer body go a long way.

/oh, and accent.

Came here for the images....Leaving satisfied....satisfied,

I love how she backs it up by destroying the field, even with terrible upper body form.

Moving up from the 300 IH to 400 IH was a RUDE awakening when I got to college. I was able to pretty much sprint the full 300, but that last 100 kicked my ass until I learned to change how I raced. My 100 meter splits went up a full second at my best.

During indoor season I'd run either the 500 or 600 dash - which I think is tougher than either the 800 or 400IH. But outdoors, it's probably a wash between the 800 and 400IH.

Your Average Witty Fark User: I love how she backs it up by destroying the field, even with terrible upper body form.

Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed that.

Serious question about hurdling, from someone who only tried it once or twice in an elementary school PE class: If the two legs have two different functions, how does someone who spends that much time training not wind up with some kind of physical imbalance? Or stress injury?
