It could be fun, but only if it was being used as a particle collider at the same time... |
|
|
The constriction of the tunnels could be overcome by
organizing the race rally-style, with runners starting at
regular intervals. |
|
|
If I managed to run that far (assuming I avoided collisions,
which seem unlikely given the name of the place) I'd be
hadrosaur in the morning. |
|
|
When the beam's live, it gets quite warm in the tunnels. Not ideal for running. |

So, like, for three or four minutes every six months? Plenty
of time to run the race between breakdowns. |
|
|
I know it runs much more than that, I'm just kidding.
Actually, Jenny and I are avid LHC-watchers. |

With sustained nuclear fission stair lifts. |

I had no idea the LHC was full of large ducks. |
|
|
They're camouflaged and very hard to spot, you have
to be peking in the right places |
|
|
UB didn't hear the quarking. |

It would certainly be more interesting to see the result of colliding two small rubber ducks at near light speed. Presumably they couldn't get the funding for that and had to stick to colliding boring old particles instead.. |
|
|
Alternatively the ducks might just be a blind and it might really be the Large Halibut Collider.. |
|
|
To make it work as designed, half the runners should set off clockwise, and the other half anti-clockwise, and get all the media to camp out halfway round to capture all the exciting collisions. |
|
|
Two teams run in opposite directions. When collisions occur, ...... |
|
|
Even better would be the Thames Water Ring Main (see link) - 80km of 2.54m pipes. |
|
|
This idea actually made me lol |
