Oh My Deus – “At the C*nter”

Oh my, I just read Julie Urbanski’s race report from the ‘Oh My Deus by UMTB’ event at the beginning of this month and the race shirt slogan cracks me up:

The race t-shirt could have used the help of a native English speaker. Serra da Estrela is in the center of Portugal, geographically, so the slogan was, “You in the center,” but on the shirt, it had a * (star) in the center, because estrela means star in English, and it’s like you’re the center of the race as well, but the shirt just looks weird with, “You in the C*nter.” When I ran into two South African women in the race, the first thing they asked me was, “So what do you think of the race shirt?”

You gotta read the full race report on the Team RunRun blog and scroll to the bottom for the picture proof.

Language man, you gotta love it.
