Chrissie Wellington in Kona - high speed run video

[joshtube9]

IF I was fresh, and IF I was having a good day, and IF it was 50 degrees out, then I would have a chance of matching Chrissie's time during a Kona IM marathon. What an athlete!

I just think she is a cutie pie. Yeah I have a creepy crush on her.

I guarantee Chrissie is a better runner than anyone that has just posted, including myself.

i was thinking the same thing. i think it looks like a forefoot strike first, but it's very subtle. i had to watch the video about 10 times to even see it.

three fucking loosers - what stupid comments, who cares what part of her foot hit the ground first - her chest broke the tape........go away dum pricks

I am learning to run, so I want to see what part of the foot of elite runners hit the floor first, and what I can not understand is your reaction to that,

Any human being that say looser to other human is a looser himself, I would sugest you to look for help so you can enjoy life, instead of ruin it, and not hurt yourself and others

@papangbizrigs ..

papanbgizrigs .... ignore gunthernorman (tool!) the part of your foot hitting the floor first will be a little bit dictated by your shoes and your body position. Don't force the forefoot run. Lean a very little bit forward and look for a long push off at the back. That will help your foot strike underneath your body which is a good thing as it stops the 'brake' effect of a foot strike in front of you. Check out this run analysis

@gunthernorman Your so cool, what a cool comment!

[longinos10]

is that a heel strike or frontfoot stike ?

[Peekingduck]

Awesome clip.

Finally got to see which part of her foot touches the ground first.

Thanks so much
