You may be interested to know that John Nicholson (pres of Blackburn
CC, and sometimes discussed person here!) holds some sort of
record for the longest trackstand - he was a world sprint champion
and I think it was in a final, where they stood still for about
30 minutes or so *during* a race.
I think the rules were changed after that, but I don't really
know the details. Maybe Shabby or Piledlower can fill in the
story, being better versed in track lore?
Imagine how a 30 minute trackstand would freeze your muscles up!
Insane!
