Went jogging last night, did 5km in 24 minutes, about 11 minutes than my flatmate's average.
But it lead to half a discussion. First the statement "5km, that's more of a women's distance", nah, men and women both compete in it.
Secondly, the statement "Well, men and women don't compete against each other", well, not officially, but I'm sure they do all the time.
Thirdly, the statement "It would hardly be fair if men competed against women in that one", yeah, it would be pretty unfair for me to run against Paula Radcliffe, she would so whoop my ass.
Thrilling stuff, I'm sure you'd agree. This is why I try not to chat to my flatmate unless it can't be avoided.
