Which classic British sports day event was secretly the best bit of school?
Sports day: a national institution of grass stains, questionable PE kits and parents getting far too competitive. Rank the events that defined those sunny summer afternoons.
Put the items in your preferred order.
A
The Sack Race
Half athletic contest, half comedy show. Whoever stayed upright past the halfway mark deserved a knighthood.
B
The Egg and Spoon Race
A masterclass in concentration ruined by that one kid who used Blu Tack. Pure playground scandal.
C
The Three-Legged Race
Nothing tests a best-mate bond like being tied to them and told to sprint. Falling out was practically guaranteed.
D
The Tug of War
The grand finale where entire year groups collapsed into a heap. Teachers pretending not to join in was the real event.
E
The Parents' Race
The most anticipated event of the day. Someone's dad always went down like he'd been sniped by a rooftop marksman.
