When I was at school
on sports day, the star hurdler had a massive lead and chose to showboat by diving over the 100m line. Hurdles are run over 110m. He came in fifth.

We had a chamion sprinter. As he passed us on the final lap of a long race he let us all hear his clarion call of "Eat my dust" as he raced past. Even though he won handsomely he was only remembered as the twat who shouted "Eat my dust".
