Tell you what, there are a fuckload of things I'd rather watch than Olympic race walking. How the fuck this ever become a "sport", I'll never know

Then the ensuing pile on from the Aussie media.

Nah. Defined sport with defined rules you play as hard as you can. Butterfly and race walking are both events where you're required to race slowly.
