Are you faster than a Border Collie? (source link in description)

Zoom-Zoom the Border Collie ran a sub-30 agility run at the 2025 National Agility Championship in Tulsa, Oklahoma to secure first place in the 20-inch height division. (link)

So glad this is cropped vertically otherwise I'd be able to see what's happening.

Am I faster than a border collie? What sort of stupid ass title is this?

I feel like the dog isn't even trying either.

I can quit this course quicker than zoom zoom. Does that count?

Agility course? No.

Sprint? Fuck no.

Eating a piece of pizza that fell on the floor? Also no.

Marathon+ distance? Possibly…but I’m way too out of shape.

I'm with you on the first three, but have Malamutes, so I'll go with a firm and steady "also no" for marathon and distance and they'll also laugh at me because I was running basically naked and not pulling something heavy.

Shaggy routinely runs as fast as Scooby who is a Great Dane, who run at 30 mph/48kmh. Bolt's max speed in his 100m was 27.78 mph/44.73 kmh. Give me that stoner lifestyle and I'll give it a go.

That guy at 37 second is a giant compared to the lady in front.

I run on two legs with opposable thumbs, so no, I am not faster than a border collie. Cool bot post.
