    so much information within this video. I didn't understand how much the hurdles weighed in relation to hitting them was different back in the day. All I know is when I ran they would have to adjust the weight of the hurdles each time for the men vs women.

    As I was saying in the full clip, this is the best technical runner ever. Lines or no lines. Edwin Moses is the best anyway. I saw a slow motion video in the mid 80's of his feet. Nobody and no one can run that high on the ball of the foot, I still remember it. His way of running and hitting the track made me run on ice, snow, sand everything for examin my own drive. Thank you for having this man on the show.

    ...and that's why he is the greatest of all time. Winner of 107 consecutive races a record that may never be beaten. Interesting how he used math and science to enhance his technique.

    Edwin Moses was (and is) one of my running idols. I still remember watching him lie down and relax on the track next to the blocks on his final Olympics just before he destroyed the rest of the field. His wife was going nuts with nerves in the stands and Edwin was as cool as could be. He’s most definitely the GOAT for the 400m hurdles!

    Current world record/olympic record holder Karsten Warholm. 13 steps, left foot. Actually 15 steps on the last couple of hurdles in the olympics

      They should never have more then three people on at the same time. When they have four there is always someone left out of the conversation.

      He talked an awful lot. The star is always NDGT anyway but in this episode it was Edwin Moses. Chuck was never the athlete with any input to give here.

    Utmost respect for Dr. Moses. It’s a shame he was unable to add to his medal count as a result of the 1980 Olympics US boycott

  • @laurin4405

    ohMY Brilliant!!💡As he explains it, it makes TOTAL sense to me... 🏃🏾His "advantage" was he didn't have to go as Far as everyone else... Just a Masterstroke #SportsNerd 👍👏

    I barely passed high school physics but I believe there is another advanyage to a left leg lead in the intermediate hurdles beyond saving distance by running closer to the inside of the lane. With the left leg lead the hurdler is leaning into the inside of the lane. with the right leg lead there would appear to be an element of centrifugal force puylling the runner to the outside of the lane (thus affecting even more the distance run).

    So, not to be bold but I think this is the origin of the phrase "getting off on the wrong foot". I believe this is knowledge most track coaches will tell you.

  • @jamesconnell7524
    @jamesconnell7524 3 роки тому +1

    As a Montrealer (yes, I was around during those games), standards are, To This Day, the same > pound that right foot to reach that left leg over the hurdle...ie., light is yellow, 100 meters away, orange cones/construction abound, there's no goin' back (or slowing down), I'm getting Gold 'til the next red light, a block away (like NYC, no right turns on a red). Cheers 😊

    E. Moses was 1.08 seconds slower half a century ago than Warholm in 2021. Today's surfaces are at least 0.3 seconds faster per 100m section than they were 50 years ago. Ergo Moses is still the fastest of all time. Jesse Owens ran 10.30 on a clay surface 80 years ago...

    Here's a question. When there's a supernova resulting in the formation of a black hole what happens to the stellar dust? Does it get pulled into the blackhole or does it manage to get far enough away to hang around and orbit the newly formed singularly? Also love the video keep up the great work

    But I can't get the math to make sense. If you tie a rope one meter above the ground around the world, it would only be 6.28 m longer due to 2pi r, or what?
