Catch phrases for the agility course

Train Like You Compete T-Shirt from Clean RunA while ago, American Kurt Glaub requested ideas for non-commercial phrases to put on the jump boards on a panel jump at his local show. The response was tremendous! People took inspiration from everywhere - even the Bible, Star Wars, pop stars and even the ancient Greeks! The trial has come and gone, and by all accounts it was a great success. Kurt has kindly agreed to compile a list of the best suggestions in alphabetical order! His final choices are highlighted in red below. What's your favourite?
