I really enjoy watching a good marathon unfold better than most films. Any athletics that's on tv I watch & I go the Crystal Palace each year. It's the distance events I like most but do enjoy some of the field events.
The other sports I watch are triathlon & I'm really into the Tour De France. I've now got sky to watch more top tours. I like some sking & think the biathlon is a really tough event.
What Do your like & why? please.

I do like the more obsure sports in the olympics tho.
I like the hockey, as I used to play it v. enthusiastically, but it's rarely on.
If you mean to include things other than sports, I also enjoy playing acoustic guitar and writing music, because nothing makes me feel better than they do
Non-sports things - cooking, reading,films...and I'm sure you all know by now my other big hobby is dog training.

Hey have you noticed, its the same 8-10 of us moving en-masse from thread to thread like rampaging hordes!
I must go and get dressed soon.
It's chimps fault :-)
and who said Elland Road "super-whites"?
'off-whites' more like!
;-)
Used to love Tour but went off it following EPO scandal. They have random tests and hey! suddenly Virenque and Pantani cant climb mountains anymore!
Being serious (v briefly) its one of the things I admire about Paula, her stance against drugs. Nothing kills sport like drug scandals.
By the way I'm at home when on the PC because I don't use one at work. Not much use when laying bricks!!!!!!
Other thing's I like when not running are....
reading, cooking, music, films, & I've just got a little into gardening as well.

I saw a sprinter (think it was Darren Campbell) on TV a couple of months back saying that if Paula got her drinks spiked it was her own fault for kicking up a fuss about drugs. True in a way I suppose, she's a lot less likely to get hassle if she keeps her mouth shut, but she has principles and acts on them, which is something I admire. To suggest that she "deserves" to get her drinks spiked because she speaks out against cheats is bull as far as I'm concerned.
