Pros are getting chicked!!! (Page 2)

Pector55 - 2009-10-11 1:40 PM I was running by a farm the other day.  Inside the fence in area a pig came flying past me.  I guess I got porked.

pga_mike - 2009-10-10 3:02 PM I just invented another term...

"Geezed"  def. ~ Getting overtaken by a person who is obviously two or more AG older

What about this one?

"AG-ed" def. ~ Getting overtaken by an age grouper

I meant no offense, I actually think that it is great that women (ok Chrissie) is so strong that she can finish top 10 Overall in almost any race.  I cannot wait until she wins one!

Heck, my first 5k, I got beaten by a dog!

 

crimefighter2 - 2009-10-12 10:25 AM I've been chicked, geezed, strollered, and in my first race I was passed by a 10 year old.  THAT was an ego boost.  However, I can say, I've never been porked...oh...wait, uh, nevermind.

I love geezing people though.  

bryancd - 2009-10-12 11:33 AM Looks like Chrissie appreciates the term "chicked", here's a qoute from her post race press conference.: "No, it's not something that's important to me, knowing where am I amongst the men. (Prompted by a question we asked about why Wellington had asked our spotters where she was in the field compared to the men.) I actually felt quite bad when I overtook some of the men out there. They give me someone to chase down out there. I don't know whether they take too kindly about being chicked."

For many years it has been theorized that women are more equipped genetically than men for endurance sports, mostly due to the generally extra % body fat I believe.  Perhaps this goes well when one plots the progression of the women's marathon-record time progression relative to the men's.  It also might well go to the Ultra distance events where the female gender has shown that it is as good as the male.  Perhaps we might see this in the IM with some time.  I somewhat doubt it, I just do not think the effort is long enough in duration albeit interesting.

I personally do find it offensive to hear the term getting "chicked".  Not because getting beat by an exceptional athlete is negative, but moreso that calling a woman a chick is a bit disrespectful.  The term perhaps belongs in the locker room as opposed to a public forum.
