QUIZ # 3 (April, 2000)

Grand Prize:  A box of 16 Orange (Carrot) PR bars to the first correct e-mail entry sent to Toby at swoosh@onebox.com . If no one wins after one month, the grand prize will be given to Pam Bohl, our international member in Paris. Why? PR relates to Personal Record, and in Europe they say Personal Best. As no one in the Central Park Track Club e-directory had the initials PR, the person in Europe with the initials PB gets it!  

Unfortunately (or fortunately?) for Pam, the Spaniard Ramon Bermo came in with the correct answers in less than three days' time.  ¡Viva España! ¡Viva Don Quizote!

The Quiz

Question 1:  The key to this question is a simple geographical one. Which country hosts a marathon that begins in one continent and ends in another?
Answer: Turkey (~"The key")

Question 2: Which male scored a big knockout win in the ’98 Fukuoka marathon, and which sport caused his trademark limp?
Answer: Jackson Kabiga and soccer

Question 3: Patrick Sjöberg has dual citizenship. One is Swedish, he lives in Spain, had a Finnish coach, drives an Italian car and if you sigh and press the countries together you maybe will find the answer.
Answer: Cyprus (~"sigh and press")

Tie-breaker: Hardly ten minutes drive from the center of Puerto Banus one comes across Patrick Sjöberg’s Americanized bar – the drinking variety and not the high jump apparatus.  Name the bar.
Answer: Harley (~"hardly")
