For ppl who don’t follow track and field, Allyson is the most versatile runner in history. She is one of only a handful of runners to go sub 11 seconds in the 100m, sub 22 seconds in the 200m, and sub 50 seconds in the 400m. She is the most decorated medalist in global championships(Olympics and world championships) track and field athlete in HISTORY. More than Usain Bolt, more than Shelly ann fraser pryce, more than Carl Lewis. Recently in Tokyo she won a historic bronze medal in the 400m after becoming a mother and becoming the oldest female 400m Olympic medalist. She’s not a flashy sprinter, 100m is her weakest event and she’s not screaming and gloating when she wins, but she always finds a way to fly under the radar and win, and that’s what matters!

i saw her for the first time at the last olympics and the first thing i thought was "wow she looks like a classy lady." i guess she just gives off that classy vibe.
@@cielecelestine3469 do not mistake my statement as a suprise. I just think in my humble opinion that she is a beautiful person. Did you see an exclamation point in my sentences?
@Jacque even tho I agree with him, I've never heard ANYONE call a white person "well spoken". That compliment is exclusive for describing black people.
her talking about walking into the stadium at the olympics with the camera flashes and how the crowd can affect performance makes me wonder how much not having a crowd will affect athlete performance this year....
im a former 100, 200 sprinter and for me I liked it and i performed better when there was less of a crowd so theres probably a few athletes who feel the same way
She's the best in the world at what she does, she has amazing poise and screen presence, and she's absolutely beautiful. More of Allyson Felix explaining things, please!
I used to do athletics when I was in middle and high school. After doing it for 5 years, I had to had dropped it, choosing academic education. Allyson Felix was an inspiration back then and she still is. Mad respect for her. Truly a legend
I really love how she speaks. I would listen to her for hours. Even if i don't understand all that she says because i don't understand English very well🙃
Gonna have to say that turn in Get Out is 100% realistic. That's more football and basketball than track and field. In Football there's even plays named after the technique. 10 and Out for example. You run as fast as you can for 10 yards, then cut hard to the outside of the field without losing speed at what is essentially a 90 degree angle. That's all the guy did. Just a quick cut.
@@jessicagreen8883 Yeah. A sprinter who never actually has to turn while running. Nothing against her but if you've ever watched a football game that is one of the most common plays.
She should have done Unbroken about Louis Zamperini the Olympic athlete that got put in a Japanese prisoner of war camp. He was at same Olympics as Jesse Owens.
What a legend, she's just as down to earth here as she is in interviews and stuff. Beautiful woman, amazing athlete, I'm sure wonderful mother, this woman can do anything. I've watched her since college and she developed into one of the best track and field athletes ever. Amazing stuff!
I remember seeing an interview for that stupid Will & Jaden Smith movie about being future soldiers or whatever, and Will was talking about getting a trainer early in his action career to teach him how to run on camera (to excuse how brutally awkward and unathletic Jaden was even after training). He said he had to develop a completely new form exclusively for being on camera.
Personal feelings about him being in a cult aside (which I honestly feel bad for him), he seems like the type of actor that would hear this critique and change the way he runs. He seems to be very dedicated to giving a great performance.
The level of detail that Olympic athletes use when describing what they are looking at shows you the amount of effort they put into working that certain area/technique on their own body.
I miss having real athletes like her that are intelligent, well spoken hard working, and talented. Knows the history and the way that was paved. She’s a beast.
Would have been interesting to hear analysis of 100/400m races in Chariots of Fire (based on runners in the 1924 Paris Olympics). Especially Eric Liddell's highly unusual (but very effective) 'head back' style.
7:00 "This is actually not how you start..." but that literally is how they started back then, 100% accurate, you can see video of Jessie Owens and yeah him and everyone else does exactly this.
They said that "hard turn" in the Get Out running actually "did" hurt the actor. He was running at full speed then had to turn away just like they directed it...he tore/sprained something.
I'm a cross country runner and I remember when I first began transitioning to track my first race was on a terribly frigid day. My muscles locked up so badly and I could hardly breathe. It was terrible, but I stuck with it and got SO much better at short distance that season.
What are the odds that while I'm watching this I get a notification informing me that, "Allyson Felix wins eleventh Olympic medal to become the most decorated American athlete in track and field history?"
Allyson's got a gift explaining things. I knew she was a smart cookie but didn't know she's the next great coach...Do a masterclass in sprinting...I'd pay for that.

I have ALWAYS wanted to hear an expert talk about how Tom Cruise runs lmao
same, he just looks ridiculous most of the time but I couldn't articulate why. Allyson breaks it down perfectly
Why???
You don’t need to be an expert to see he’s an obnoxious runner, he’s definitely the king of “doing too much” lol
Who's Tom Cruise? : {)
He's pushing the VISUALS since he's making a movie so he exaggerates some of the motions. His actions make sense considering what he's doing.
So nice seeing her in a ton of recent UA-cam videos!
Ikr. It's like she's finally getting recognized
Me too! I'm enjoying everyone of them!!!
Calling yourself mathematical yet enjoying such primitive nonsense.
Pathetic.
She’s a living legend!
@@Wabbelpaddel you can enjoy math AND "primitive nonsense". I bet there are 2 completely different things that you enjoy in life. 🤦♂️
This could be filled with Tom Cruise movies only and it would still barely scratch the surface.
but his run is the most consistent thing in the universe? What else is there to say?
as a distance guy hearing her say she loved hot weather was a mind melter

Honestly
The crowd give everybody the adrenaline.. without a crowd, it’s hard to push as hard
@@bernarjayjackson2003 Interesting theory I read is that the athletes might do better because the crowd literally sucks the oxygen out of the stadium.
As a former sprinter (200m, 400m) the crowd is a motivator but I know a lot of field athletes and distance runners that prefer a quieter atmosphere
im a former 100, 200 sprinter and for me I liked it and i performed better when there was less of a crowd so theres probably a few athletes who feel the same way
Allyson Felix? I see, I click. She is not only an amazing athlete but an amazing advocate
We could have an entire video dedicated to just Tom Cruise running scenes. Video would be about 2 hours long but still.
He do love to run and he love to run hard!

I wish they used the scene in Cool Runnings where the guys fall over each other trying to qualify for The Olympics.
