Which athletic Championship would you most like to win?

[epbrown]

Chicago Marathon. I think my last one I placed 13,247th

Oh man, The U.S. Open and here is the kicker as an amateur! Oh that would be splendid

[Porsche-O-Phile]

Screw that - Boston Marathon - much more prestige (and yes, I've run both Chicago and Boston, I do love the Chicago course though - very flat and fast). Either that or the Comrades Marathon in South Africa or the Tour De France.

[ronin]

F1 championship

btw: which Daytona?

[CJFusco]

being a Red Sox fan, the World Series is a no-brainer.

[JavaBrewer]

Tour de France - no pretenders there.

No doubt! Can you imagine the wave of endorsement $ that would follow?

[island911]

you forgot to list:

The Athletic Cup

The Dixie Cup

[SRISER]

The D-Cup...

[island911]

Sam. . .Ha! . .

yeah, California always win that one.
. ..and the E-cup.
. . .and the EE-cup.

. . .every year, hands down winner.

[SRISER]

...you mean, hands on winner?

[Superman]

Folks from California have been telling me for years that the PNW wins, hands down, the D and E cups. They say California wins the A and B cup races. Of course, that was before aftermarket bumpers became so popular.

I'm assuming 24 hours means LeMans. That's what I voted for. Something about pushing yourself and your car to the limits for 24 hours intrigues me.

I think most Red Sox PLAYERS would also like to win the World Series!

[chibone_914]

I say the California "pie" eating contest....

[turbocarrera]

Hockey and LeMans are winning.. looks like we might be onto something.

[}{arlequin]

More people in more countries know Beckham and Pele than Shumi and Senna. As chick magnet potential you can't beat the World Cup.

As for the stress, danger and accomplishment factor, I think I'd go with the F1/LeMans combo.

Key West Race Week in the Farr 40 class.

A week in Key West racing in a very competitive one-design sailboat fleet against some of the best rock star sailors in the world. And you get to have a party each night on the beach after the racing. Sounds sublime.

And sailor-girls rock.

But the Masters...Tradition, Exemption, "Green Jacket", Augusta (only one Augusta, "Amen Corner" etc.,), Club House privilege, etc.,
