I agree. This is genius.
Jim Walmsley ran the Western States 100 miles this weekend and was far in the lead at mile 90 before taking a wrong turn and finishing completely out of contention. He probably had a worse weekend, but check out his attitude.

I actually do agree with your post. You may or may not have been kidding, but I've seen this in most of my teammates, along with myself in relationships. I'm currently very happy with my girlfriend, but there have definitely been times lately where I feel like she has more power in the relationship than me. She's young, very progressive, and is big into pursuing her career because she believes the female has the right to be the main breadwinner for the house. At the same time, she has said she never felt this vulnerable before with how she feels about me. For the first time in her life she actually feels like part of her happiness depends on me. She is younger, and still has some serious emotional maturing to do. She is very bad about controlling what she says and does when she gets mad. How do I handle that?
OP- sorry about your situation. My advice would be to get into a solid career, make some cash, stabilize yourself, and find a pleasant girl who will treat you with respect and not take you for granted. You should do the same for her.
You are in trouble my friend. A modern day problem is feminists hating being in love. When she's 35, she'll suddenly realize it's ok to fall for a great guy like you but somehow at her age now, she thinks being with a man is a sign of sexism.
a footrace has no real consequences (Unless it's olympics/Sponsor/Career) I understand he was sad to lose like that, but it's nothing in comparison to losing the love of your life. I've led and lost many races in heartwrenching fashion, never did it have me torn up days or weeks later. It's just a sport like soccer or volleyball or Frisbee.

Ryan Lochte trained hard four years and missed his main event this weekend. That has to hurt all that time down the tube.

No one had a worse weekend.
It sounds like your weekend was indeed a horror show.
However, before we render judgement on whether your above statement is true or not, we need to hear from someone else:
Jamin ? (the real one, not the .fakes that have shown up so far) Care to weigh in on this one? This sounds like a challenge. I believe you can top this.
Messi did!

It's really about the journey, not the destination.

Rojo you ok?
I feel like you should be able to do fine with the women. Just don't get attached. Pump and dump until you're 45 or so.
Is there a rule against attaching a helium balloon to yourself while running a road race?
Am I living in the twilight zone? The Boston Marathon weather was terrible!
How rare is it to run a sub 5 minute mile AND bench press 225?
