You wear silly clothes thinking you look fantastic, but actually look a complete idiot, you then start off way too fast, die in the middle and then grovel to the finish. You then compare with how your mates have done, usually much better than you! And then you'll promise that next time you'll be so much better!

and you counldn't manage it twice on the trot! :oops:
