Washington Women Break NCAA DMR Record! 

He's rubbish

Yes it does work, but sure looks funny..... 🙂

It’s a running style typically associated with East Asians, particularly Chinese and Japanese athletes. It’s actually quite efficient, though it’s usually accompanied by a very low hand position and this runner’s hands are held high. The athlete who I think best represents the effectiveness of this style is Xing Huina of China who won the 2004 Olympic 10,000m by out sprinting Ethiopians Ejagayehu Dibaba and Derartu Tulu (Tulu is the 1992 and 2000 gold medalist in this event). The truth is that over time athletes will tend to naturally find a stride that suits their own physiology and physical strengths. Knowledgeable and smart coaches know not to try to change this though you’ll find a lot of “internet experts”, who have little to no experience with this sport, yet are quick to try to give their uninformed advice on how these experienced and accomplished athletes need to “fix” their running style. Note: I’m not saying anyone here suggested she change her style. I was just pointing out that people often do. Noticing it is common since it is rather unusual to see athletes from “western” countries running this way. There is a high school girl coming up who broke quite a few HS records in the last two years (maybe a freshman in college this year?) who also runs with this distinctive running style. She didn’t get a lot of attention, possibly because of COVID, but she should hit the college ranks soon.

.....ok?

i was thinking the same lol

Ignorant

Oh for crying out loud, give it a rest for a few minutes.
