G'day all,
Just thought I'd share my efforts on the weekend where I scored a 12km try in the City to Surf... Only took me 86 minutes which probably speaks more of my alcohol intake during the leadup to the race than anything else!
I don't recommend anyone try run any long distance with a rugby ball in future as it throws out your rhythm and possibly pulls a muscle in your neck... At least train with it if you must carry it.
Also TRAIN if you intend to do the City to Surf. Looking back, I should have done some form of training.
At least I looked good, apart from the chicken legs:
On a side note, I bumped into Pieter Van Zyl from the Cheetahs who was also doing the run, by complete fluke when I offered to take a photo of he and his ladyfriend together as they were taking a photo of each other separately mid race... He commented on my attire and when I asked him who he supported (judging he may be a rugby fan by his thick South African accent) he replied that 'I play for the Cheetahs'. He seemed a nice bloke and even offered to take my photo midrace and send it to me.
Maybe we could get a TWF team together for 2012?
Great work mate
So were you representing a Loosehead, Outside Centre and Left Wing?
Hope you didn't knock on when taking the photo for PVZ![]()
"Bloody oath we did!"
Nathan Sharpe, Legend.
Awesome effort Mate. Did you jump at 2,4 or 6 in the lineout?
Well done Darth, I did the 4 km walk in 46.09 so your effort was outstanding![]()
Yeah, but he has legs Elf...

Nathan Sharpe, Legend.
A 15-man (person) team next year would be great. However, what happens if someone knocks on or does a forward pass?
You go back to the start...
"Bloody oath we did!"
Nathan Sharpe, Legend.
did you get the ball over the line ?
Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.
TMO said it was inconclusive, but there may have a forward pass prior to the line.
Sure Darth deserves some credit, but what about Bert's effort!!!!!!
80 Minutes, 15 Positions, No Protection, Wanna Ruck?
Ruck Me, Maul Me, Make Me Scrum!
Education is Important, but Rugby is Importanter!
What a great effort...xx
Great effort Darth! I'd be up for joining a TWF team next year! though I'm not a very good runner![]()
