Question

When responding to Broadsea's challenge, Odysseus brags that he can beat everyone at every event but one?

Answer 1

He can beat everyone except on sprinting. This is found in book 8 when he said, "In the foot race alone I fear that someone of the Phaeacians may out strip me, for cruelly have I been broken amid the many waves, since there was in my ship no lasting store of provisions; therefore my limbs are loosened."

Answer 2

At every event except for sprinting
