This is no different than, say, the Butterfly in swimming. Yet nobody ridicules Michael Phelps.

@ILoveMushrooms777 and you think that this was anything more than me linking from this other video and then making some jokes jeez cool off it's teh internetz man no need to take anything seriously, for reals holmes it's obviously this video I hunted down and decide to pounce on this vid, no I linked from a classic 50's era psa synced to Haters gonna Hate, hmmm your statements are as profound as the rantings of Rush Limbaugh.

@OrginalMctron Wanna know something funny. I looked at you in a video. Your pretty pudgy yourself. You sure as hell couldn't be a distance runner or an athlete, so obviously your insecure about yourself. This makes your resort on making fun of others.

I don't get the dad's comment that a powerwalker beat this kid. I racewalk some and even an easy pace can beat the fastest power walker.

[Z0mbieRaid]

that'd be so annoying, i'd be so tempted to just book it. I guess that's where some of the skill comes in.

I'm taking a power walking class now and who ever says its not a sport should try themselves!!!!

[RunningEagle2011]

race walking is harder than running...and i run in collegiate cross country races

people who make fun of this sport are obviously ignorant. any athletes could see why this is considered a sport.
