It’s being billed as, ‘The Slowest 8 minutes in Sports” and for good reason – turtles.
The (Old Forester) Kentucky Turtle Derby – K.T.D. if you’re into the whole ‘brevity thing’ is slowing down this Saturday – except this race isn’t ‘brief’, compared to the horse version of the Kentucky Derby -this year slow n’ steady wins the race… eventually.
Witness eight, elite reptilian athletes crawl towards history. Look for competitors with names like Seattle Slow, Sir-Hides-A-Bunch, American Toruga and Galapa-GO!
It’s more Methodical Marathon than Mad Dash. This year’s race will be won by a measurement in centimeters not lengths and turtle necks not (equine) noses.
A run for the roses is a slog for the slowest. But only one turtle can claim the title and (sorry) ‘shell-a-brate’ their victory at the end.
