Racquetball Marathons-the Zombie Crawl!!
Often viewed in the long tournaments, especially the IRF marathons and most recently, at the Arizona State Doubles one day tournament featuring a double elimination open division!
By Saturday night many players were doing the zombie crawl made famous in the TV show, The Walking Dead!
Symptoms of the Zombie crawl in racquetball–
1. Mopping up nonexistent wet spots on the floor to catch a breath
2. Asking how many timeouts you have left over and over to catch a breath
3. Dropping the lower jaw to catch your breath
4. Cramping in one or more extremities -which leads to the famous Walking Dead Gait!
5. Taking a five minute timeout instead of 30 seconds
6. Leaving shot after shot up because your legs and timing is shot and last
7. Being too tired to stand up for your second or third place award.
The cure? Prepare better, by training harder. Hydrate more. Eat better. No Alcohol!
