Today, my entire gym class had to run the 1600 with our coach calling out finishing times. My finishing time was reported as "3 days short of a year." FML

Today, I ran the mile in gym class. I was the second to last person to finish, and I was left panting and feeling faint. When the teacher found out I hadn't come in dead last, he accused me of skipping a lap and is now making me rerun the entire thing. FML
Today, I had to run a timed mile. I'm terrible at running. During the run, I thought I was doing a good job. That is, until the teacher told me to stop because I was three laps behind everyone else. FML
Today, I had to run a mile in gym class for fitness training. If it takes longer than 10 minutes to run the stretch, you have to re-take it. My time was 10:02. FML
Today, I got cut from my track team. My coach told me it was because my sprints were "too fast" for his liking. Huh? FML
Today, I was running the 100m sprint in a track meet. Me and another girl were tied for dead last. When we finished, she complained, "It's so embarrassing how slow I am today. I have shin splints. What happened to you?" I was actually running my hardest. FML
Today, I did a sprint in gym class. Despite being the skinniest in the class, I ran slower than everyone else, including two morbidly obese people. FML
Today, I was up against two others in a 120m race on my school's sports day. Unexpectedly, I heard my name being chanted from most of the classes watching and well, this made me want to win so much that I leaned forward too much whilst running and ended up tripping and rolling on the track. I heard loud sighs after. FML
Today, I had my first day of soccer tryouts. We began with a two mile run. Trying to be honest for once, I didn't lie about my time. Everyone else did. I thus got the worst score, and had to run it again. FML
Today, my swimming coach made us swim fifty laps non-stop as punishment for his previous class being unable to swim a drill properly. They're 8-11 year olds who are still learning to swim. I feel like my arms and legs are filled with lead. FML
Today, my PE teacher was yelling at me because I got exhausted too quickly. As we neared the end of the exercise, he declared, "I will let y'all go early if [my name] doesn't give up halfway through this part." With all of the pressure on me, I forced myself to keep going. Then I promptly collapsed. FML

This is officially the best comment I've ever seen.

That would be hilarious

I bet you got kicked out a lot...
oj101 33
Could someone please explain this comment to me? The grammar construction of it makes it confusing for me.
Headcrab 29
This comment is ... perfect.
CheeseTron 15
30- He's basically implying that the coach suffers from premature ejaculation. lol
oj101 33
37 - Ok, still don't get it. Could someone please explain the FML to me like I'm a 5 year old, to put it into context.
Pleonasm 35
OP took a really long time to finish the race. The coach made fun of OP for it, stating that they almost took a year. Cue commentor saying that if the coach wanted a fast finish, the coach should have sex with his wife, implying that he doesn't last long in bed, and we all know that is the epitome of cumbacks.
theTrollGuy 7
My god #39! You're talking about cumbacks to a 5 year old! What's wrong with you!
Pleonasm 35
Yea, I'm Scumback Steve.
Wizardo 33
Once in a while you see that legendary comment... this is one of those whiles.
oj101 33
Thanks 39. As for 51, I had read it just after I woke up, so my brain wasn't fully switched on :)

Sir, I tip my bonnet to you. Well done
davincidasecond 24
Kudos, #1. Very clever lol
Ziggy122 15
Okay, you win at FML comments. Everybody else go home.

like he actually has a wife.

If it takes you this much time to understand a fml, maybe shouldn't even be here.
yoyoforpeace 14
Don't sweat it OP. You're not a track star and gym class is a joke! Cheer up :)
WoldowJR 25
Slowly begins clapping. Other people join in. There is suddenly a huge roar of applause. The entire crowd goes wild! People chant your name! #1! #1! #1!

At least you finished, OP! There were some people in my high school gym class who couldn't complete a mile, so you should be proud of yourself.
Perrydox 5
No offense..but proud to walk a mile? If you can't do a fuxking mile go see your doctor, it's not a damn marathon
j_729 18
Trust me, there are plenty of lazy, idiot teenage girls that don't know how to run.
QueenSaru 28
There are also those of us that have asthma and already blew our knee out at sixteen due to our joints being out of place. Just because we can't run a mile doesn't mean we're lazy. I bike to and from work every day, I just can't run or jog because it's high impact on my already ****** knees/joints.

#67, my school made exemptions in cases like yours. They were actually really cool about it. I ran my mile for the President's fitness award (or whatever that was called) in 8:58, but it was a total struggle and I haven't been able to achieve a time like that again. I'm just not a runner.
finalyearsofhate 22
Hate to be the bearer of bad news and all... But "the 1600", as OP said they completed, wouldn't even be a mile. A mile is 1760 yards.
Ozzien 26
...but 1600 meters is a mile.
drakem 7
Shit man he was off by a full 9 meters, shame on you OP.
RoseBlack123 37
I really hate coaches like that, who are huge fat asses themselves yet think they can ridicule others. Maybe you should report him, he has no right to mock you like that!
NoMore_CoolNames 14
Maybe he was joking. I've had gym teachers like that who will take any opportunity to make something funny. A few years ago my gym teacher talked carp about the soccer team every chance he had... he was the coach.
MikaykayUnicorn 36
Even if he WAS joking, it hurt OP's feelings. My brother' gym teacher basically called him gay and tried to make it up with a snickers.
Mr_Loudmouth 9
3 and 33, thank you for showing everyone what's wrong with this world. Everyone now a days is just too damn sensitive and can't take a joke. Grow up please.
NoMore_CoolNames 14
33- Still, school just recently started and now the gym teacher knows what OP isn't ok with.
kwyk 23
Blah, people who scream for help at every sleight, real or imagined. He probably didn't mean any wrong by his comment, and you're probably more motivated for fitness already! ;)
miketopgunmike1 25
he talked with a fish?? no wonder your team sucks lol...
NoMore_CoolNames 14
Lol, you know what I meant.

People who are this sensitive are the reason some places can't say Merry Christmas publicly. Grow the **** up, if you suck at running or athletics in general either accept it or use this to improve. I used to be really sensitive and shy, but I learned to accept my flaws and embrace my strengths. I know this wasn't even mentioned, but I've seen it a lot. Self pitying people who dwell on shit like this are downers, and you'll make a lot more friends(even if you have a lot to begin with) if you take everything in stride. No one take this the wrong way, it takes time to come out of your shell, but the sooner you get on it the happier you will be.
How_you_doin 10
@ 33...well thats because everybody feels better after a snickers.
awkwardology 23
That sucks, OP. But at least you're not "a few sandwiches short of a picnic"... Yay, consolation prizes!
xtremlysean 6
... How was your childhood?
starile 19
A few cards short of a deck? A few inches short of a foot? A few clowns short of a circus? A few doughnuts short of being a cop? A couplet short of a sonnet? A few shrimps short of a barbie?
QueenSaru 28
@86, we always used to say "A few fries short of a Happy Meal". XD
maryaalhindi 9
Aww it's okay when I'd run the mile my coach would just sigh and walk away
tpm45 25
One time my coach wouldn't even let me finish because I was walking.... Gym was my lowest grade that quarter lol. And don't sweat it, OP, haters gunna hate.
MrSassypants 33
#48 It's hard not to sweat in gym class. What's that? You want me to go jump off a bridge because of that joke? Okey dokey.
j_729 18
48 - Are you really to lazy to even attempt jogging? I think your gym teacher did the right thing by not letting you finish
SuperSofie 23
Yup, gym coaches suck. They always picked on me because I could do sports properly (through no fault of my own). Always got my GPA down. Just ignore the coach, he's clearly an abnoxious twat. You go at your own pace OP, at least you finished the race!!
PandaSmile 24
Gym coaches suck almost as much as running does.
Pleonasm 35
And in all that time he didn't get you a ******* birthday present? Typical.
HowieDoIt 21
On the plus side, since it's not a leap year you shed about 1/4 a day off your time! Think positive, Op!
SqueakyChipmunk 21
"And you're the dumbass who waited that long for me to comeback." Wait don't say that, you'll get in trouble :u
onorexveritas 23
its okay. I couldn't even run a mile to save my life
SqueakyChipmunk 21
I should probably bring you along when the zombie apocalypse hits. I need distractions and bait.
lolita88_fml 27
You really are screwed if the zombies attack...
MrSassypants 33
Unless she's the zombie, then the people left over would be pretty safe.
