    Experts said the world is flat

    Experts said that man would never fly

    Experts said we'd never go to the moon

     

    Name me one of those "experts"...

     

    History never remembers the name of experts; just the innovators who had the guts to challenge and prove the "experts" wrong

      too much armswing.

        why?

        Experts said the world is flat

        Experts said that man would never fly

        Experts said we'd never go to the moon

         

        Name me one of those "experts"...

         

        History never remembers the name of experts; just the innovators who had the guts to challenge and prove the "experts" wrong

          because the sun exploded at the end.

            Do you recognize them?

            Experts said the world is flat

            Experts said that man would never fly

            Experts said we'd never go to the moon

              Yes, why do you think I am wearing a tinfoil helmet?  Because I think it's fashionable? Come on, man.

                Hi Robert!  I hope all is well for you.  Happy New Year!

                 

                inline, short steps, deep steps (flat footed?).

                      Given they were extrapolated to be running as fast as Usain Bolt, I think it speaks volumes to how little we know about running....

                        I wonder if they could walk 7 MPH

                          Probably... Or close to it...

                           

                          Inline technique, far more efficient than parallel landing. Longer stride, better use of tendons.

                           

                          Elite sprinting speed, and heel strike, looks like they know more about running than you do.

                            Even upon closer inspection, I don't see any midfoot or forefoot landing...

                            not bad for mile 25

                              I don't see how someone could leave a print that deep and clean while running.  Try it on a beach sometime.

                                Probably... Or close to it...

                                 If you look past the first 4 steps, it's not an inline technique.
