It's been done Chris! I've done it 8 times, I think? And couple years have been really icy. Hardly able to stay upright on road and trail sections. Ice on top of the big puddle, breaking through to knee deep icy water, with the broken ice on top cutting shins to ribbons, and attractive rivulets of blood running down legs for rest of race! Mitigation being that because it was sub zero temps, you were so numb you couldn't feel it! Tomorrow will be benign in comparison, just gales and possibly horizontal rain to contend with! :-) G

Not in a competition, but I hit the board and my coach measured it.

3.20 meters - 70.02 WAVA for my Long Jump.

I’m having it!

I've only got a 60 and a 66% this year. Though to be fair, I haven't actually done a raced race yet. XC in winter. Doesn't count. But thee will be a flat tarmac thing at some point. It will come.

Nice jumping Sharks. :-) G
