After watching the Olympics I was inspired to attempt racewalking, mainly because I felt it would be a good conversation starter and because I'm really rather unfit.

Turns out that **** is dispiritingly painful. My calves were utterly shredded. Is this what becoming fit is meant be like?

You can't walk with ur legs mate.
U move 1 metre per 100 steps.

This is why I'm taking up college sports - less competitive than uni wide sports so probably less of a shock to lazy people like me :P
On a sidenote, I love the olympics! It is the one time every four years that you'll find me remotely interested in any sort of sport :smile:


I'm so glad Olympics were on this year, it was a good distraction from the results day wait

Claim; The Olympics is fake.
Proof:
You heard it here first.
They include stuff like walking but can't include stuff like cricket.
Yes, Cricket is a proper sport, tons of countries play it. Hence, Olympics is fake. Q.E.D

Cricket is a 'trivial' sport, like this ∅\emptyset.
Racewalking is a 'proper' sport, ⊊\subsetneq.

I think I'd just have to walk tbh, so scared of riding unless it's in an open park, definitely not around people or cars >.< hopefully lectures won't be that far

Do you know where your lectures are? I'd think some would be in the Downing Site which is a good 20-30 minutes walk away, depending on traffic lights.

There used to be a bus but from this year it no longer stops outside Homerton, it stops at the train station instead.

Many people are pissed about this so it may change however.

Yeah the HUS are talking to people about it, I guess we'll know soon if the bus will still be running.

No problem, I'm a NatSci, it's going to be my third year this year.

Wow, well done on getting that far! Can I ask how you are able to handle the workload, do your supervisions help a lot with that? That's something I'm super worried about

At least you can take a bus to Addenbrooke's. I'm pretty sure the service will still be there when you start clinicals. :smile:

I wouldn't say it's 'close' but yes, it's easily accessible on a bus. :wink:
If you walk, it's *probably* (never walked myself) about 20-25? min, so it's about the same distance to the town centre.
Perhaps he meant it's closer than from other colleges. :wink:
