RE: A few thoughts on Physical 100

in #sports2 years ago (edited)

I've not watched that. There seem to be a few shows for fit people to show off. There's the Ninja Warrior one with people doing assault courses. We used to watch Total Wipeout, but a lot of people on there seemed to be in it for laughs. Are these the sports of the future? I did see some of World's Strongest Man recently and those guys are amazing. People can do incredible things, but it must take over your life. The whole thing of 'influencers' is a bit crazy, but I don't tend to follow them. They have the extra pressure of putting out fresh content all the time to keep the fans hooked.

Do we count as influencers with our running posts on Hive? It seems I do inspire some people, but maybe they are just after my votes :D

I've always loved World's Strongest Man, takes me back to my childhood watching it with my Dad as a kid, nice to see a Brit winning this year, it was close!

You're running posts keep me going, I like the fact that you're out similar days to me!

My son is into body building. He met Eddie Hall who won WSM a while back at a big event a couple of years ago.

I tend to do parkrun on Saturday, long run on Sunday and then space the other two over the week. I'm in the office for a couple of days so that leaves less time to run then. I do wonder if/when they will want us to go back full time. They have showers so I often ran at lunch time. At least that made for more variety of routes.
