In the original speed he looks like speed runner upright just speeding past them lol. but in the slow mo when in the upright posture his balls of the feet touch the foor and hardly collapses in terms of his ball strikes the ground and his arch or the heel dont come close to the floor, he is literaly floating down the track.

I would like to see side view.

ya i was looking at that too.. each time i've run my fastest ever (according to my watch), I "feel" that.. feel like i'm way up on my toes and just zero collapse/very fast GCT.

i'd love to see a side view of that too..

pc!

Tianna Bartoletta-
"I made my 2nd Olympic team in the 100m dash. It was not easy. I was so mentally exhausted before the race began that I simply broke the race down into 10 meter segments. I told myself two things. The first, just give what you have for forty meters, physics will take care of the rest. The second, physics doesn’t give a f*** how you feel right now if you execute it’ll be there it has to. It’s law. And I believed. And I ran with everything I had left. And then I fell apart with less than ten meters to go, and the World saw me drop an f bomb.  🤦🏾‍♀️ And I ran my fastest time ever. 10.78"

sick! thanks for posting that. that's some great "mental mindset" insight that's for sure.

also, a Bartoletta fan here, she's a beast.

nice find!

i bet there's some serious squat form/depth variation going on in that list though, especially with the sprinters (higher depth squats).

Rohan Browning becomes just the third Australian teenager (behind Matt Shirvington and Josh Clarke) to run under 10.20 for the 100m yesterday, clocking 10.19 (+0.1) at the Carlee Beattie Shield.
