Continuity mistake: In Ted's flashback where Barney's mysterious saboteur is talking to Lily, the girl has straight blonde hair. In episode 14, "The Bracket" where his saboteur was first introduced and she originally spoke to Lily, she had curly blonde hair in the same sequence.
Continuity mistake: When Lily is selling her favourite dress and is saying how she got a two syllable damn, the flashback shows her with the hairstyle she got after Coming Back from San Francisco, even though she said it happened in 2004. She should have had her shorter, lighter coloured hair. (00:15:10)
Continuity mistake: When Robin buys Lily's "favorite dress", Lily holds it on her lap folded, when the camera changes angles it is unfolded.
Continuity mistake: When Barney and Abby are lying in bed after the Local Art Cafe scene, Abby's arms/hands change positions between shots.

While sat on the train, the muscles in his legs start to seize up after the marathon to the point it is painful to move his legs. This is why he can't move them.
