10.1 seconds? Are you a lion?


Actually, a wannabe sprinter who turned into a rugby union winger.

The wingers are big try scorers and are usually seen on hand finishing a successful attack. Every time you hear a commentator refer to an ‘overlap’, for example, it will typically be the winger who receives the scoring pass. Therefore, the wingers are the quickest players and, during attacks, run into the space up to the try line provided by the forwards and the other backs.


Confession time: I'm actually only 5'6" tall (the dark and handsome bits still apply), but with 6'5" forwards chasing me, my incentive to get away from them and score was huge. :)

Okay, 'nuff vainglory.

I've already done a mile with a 55 lb weight bar over my shoulder to simulate the gold plates and I'm not even a big strapping farmhand. Do I get a presidential medal of honor or something?

Hi BC, likely just a printed card from President Obama saying thank for your support.


I will cherish it forever. In the meantime, 55lbs is close to the weight the plates would've been.

Which president, and of what? The dunseith North Dakota Branch? The Peroria, Ill 2nd ward deacons quorum president? The Panguich 4th ward relief society president?
