Okay running is just about the coolest thing ever i would have to say...long distance just isn't my thing, but it is pretty sweet to watch, but i would have to say 100, 200, 400, 4X1, 4X4, 4X8 are the greatest events ever!

Sprinting events are awesome to watch. You can totally see the intensity in the people. I always enjoyed doing the 200, 300, and 400 intervals in practice.

My favorite would have to be the 800m. Not distance and not a true sprint (imo). You need the best of both worlds there.

We have a saying here...it goes like this..."Throwers have more fun!"...and it's true...sure we do more push ups and we have been know to run more than the long distance people do for their warm ups, but regardless, our group has more fun and is more successful...our guys team of throwers placed 1st through 5th in divisionals last year...

I have no doubt that running is fun, what with the runner's high and all, but in our program, those who can't throw...run...

That's interesting, our track team rocks at running last year our boys took 1st at state and girls took 4th and one of our girls won the 2 mile and broke the state 4a record...we don't have many throwers, but who knows..

nice...yeah we have a couple of good sprinters, hurdlers, and long distance...we have like 80 people on our team and about 35 of them are throwers...

we were at a meet this one time and we were watching the 2 mile, and this guy was about 1 lap into it and he lost a shoe(not sure how...) and then like a lap later he kicked the other one off and ran the rest barefoot...he won too, and broke the track record, but his feet were really torn up and bloody...
