AIR!
Both of them had both feet off the ground with every stride. I don't know what the point of race walking is...
According to Wikipedia this is somehow acceptable and common. It needs to be detectible to the human eye that contact is lost.
Which seems like such a horseshit rule.
It seemed pretty clear to my human eye. The fitness required is incredible, but calling it a fast walk seems disingenuous at best.
The only thing I was thinking while watching the first time lol.
Absolutely the same. I love that episode. That and the roller skating one are probably my two favourites. Currently on season 6 of a rewatch.
wait how do you even draw the line between walking and running? this makes no sense
The definition is usually when both feet are off the ground at any time, it's running.
I watched the video and it looks like they are off the ground a lot. Either they don't care about that rule or the athletes have optimized their method so meticulously that their feet contact the ground on a contact area worth a hair's width
wot in tarnation...
Congratulations to Lyudmila for winning bronze in the 20km inefficient running race.
