Comment on Teen sprint star Gout Gout breaks Peter Norman's 56-year national 200m record
glimse@lemmy.world 1 month agoDamn, you’re right. I’m not a runner but now that you pointed it out, even I can see his start needs work! He’s gotta be losing a lot of energy wobbling like that…but once he gets moving, holy shit is he fast

Yeah I am a runner, though more of a distance fan than sprinting. Still, it was noticeable that his style seemed awkward at the start. But even without that, what is very clear is how far behind the others he is at the start, especially considering how far ahead he is even by the finish line of the 100 m (let alone 200 m).
