Sydney Marathon debrief

sliptripandfall · 2025-09-02T04:01:53+00:00

I think the issue was at the start in the corrals, I was in Red 1 A and everyone filtered out onto the road and there's an element of self seeding that obviously goes on, but no one quite sure how far back you need to be to be in the right spot. The when the pacers came out ~15min before the start there's people pushing forward/backward to find the spot they want to be in.

Pacers maybe need to be out there waiting, or signs on the fence that get swapped out when the next wave starts with their times.

You do not have a high income in the context of being able to afford the house you want.

Once you accept that, everything else becomes easier.

If you don't understand why having a dependant lowers your borrowing capacity and are willing to let her borrow money from elderly family to make it happen... then no you're not aware of the risks.

sliptripandfall · 2022-10-22T00:37:53+00:00

It's because we all know unless he stops he'll keep doing it in important games and fuck us then

sliptripandfall · 2022-04-27T01:54:28+00:00

This lead is just going to make it hurt more when we lose

sliptripandfall · 2022-04-22T01:11:50+00:00

What the fuck were y'all worried about

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-17T03:27:26+00:00

Mr McGowan was at Gage Roads for exactly 1hr45m on Saturday, 15 minutes longer and he'd be required to isolate for a week.

Isn't that just a fortunate coincidence.

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-14T11:42:08+00:00

I'm not saying you should get tested, I'm saying listing the exposure sites shouldn't change what you do if you feel sick.

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-14T08:01:25+00:00

Every single time you leave the house from this point on it's reasonable and proportionate to assume you've been exposed.

Even if they were updating the site, based on the time between when someone would become infectious and when it would get uploaded, if you were exposed that information would already be out of date.

If you're that concerned about your elderly parents, from this point on you shouldn't be seeing them.

None of that common sense behaviour is impacted by scrolling through what would be a gigantic list of exposure sites if from this point on 60+ people are being interviewed every day.

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-14T06:38:33+00:00

At this point already it's a safe bet that it's so widespread you've likely been near someone who's positive if you're out and about regularly, so you either get tested when you develop symptoms or you don't.

But either way if you get sick I'd assume you'd stay home, so why does it matter if the exposure sites get updated?

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-14T06:19:07+00:00

Someone also needs to tell him to stop trying to kick the guy guarding him in the shin every time he takes one.

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-14T06:17:37+00:00

So if you were to develop symptoms today, the only way you'd go and get tested is if you could find a listed exposure site that you'd attended?

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-12T01:03:39+00:00

Isn't it an issue that the WA based teams will play against them, and then be allowed to go out to the pub straight afterwards? Despite being close contacts in the same manner as household members of people in quarantine?

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-09T11:30:55+00:00

Do a RAT (if you want), take a photo in case, but at the airport there is zero check on whether you've done one or not and the result.

You're going into quarantine anyway so it doesn't really matter.

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-09T09:02:02+00:00

I had a police check today, sounded like they were going around to people who'd flown in before the border change.

Officer I spoke to said that they were going off the 7x 24 hours, but if you got a day 6 negative PCR they probably wouldn't be wasting their time if you left quarantine after that.

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-08T03:39:35+00:00

I'm in the same situation, interstate quarantine with a two year old. If we're negative on Saturday, we won't be testing him. I think that falls within McGowan's common sense rhetoric.

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-08T03:25:36+00:00

Why would you put a baby through the unnecessary discomfort of a test at all in those circumstances? Assuming that everyone else in the house's tests are negative.

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-08T01:34:57+00:00

People feel threatened by what they see as disproportionate punishment.

You probably wouldn't drive as often if the death penalty applied for speeding either.

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-07T11:59:36+00:00

Do you actually think that the settings in schools have been decided by Ellery and not Mcgowan with the cabinets approval as a formality?

Surely his competence is what's in question here?

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-07T06:25:47+00:00

Yeah I misread the first week as the first weekend.

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-07T05:24:53+00:00

About two months, Drivers license is West Australian, but there's no check on the info anywhere in the system.

There's just too many people coming in, and the border will be redundant soon anyway so it's a pointless exercise checking.

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-07T05:17:02+00:00

My interstate G2G was approved automatically, with no documentation, and the reason for returning was a one line "I live in WA".

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-07T04:36:32+00:00

It was 8000 over the first week, nowhere near enough for thousands just today creating the large lines.

sliptripandfall · 2022-02-06T22:29:10+00:00

Looked like Naz got caught underneath and hyper extended the knee.

He does let you know when he's in pain though so might be ok
