To be fair, there are quite some athletes where you can pause and go frame by frame all you want, you won't see two feet in the air :p

only today, Stano and, until the last 2 kms, Kawano...

they were almost perfect...

even Karlstrom, until he started to struggle with the pace of the Italian and the Japanese guys...

meanwhile He and the Central/South Americans were not walking correctly at least since the race got serious in the last 15 kms...

 

among the women, Garcia Leon was absolutely (and surprisingly) very good in both races (and deserves both gold medals)...

 

and if we don't take into consideration the doping sh*t, many Russians -even going back to the Eighties and Nineties of the last Century- used to walk really well in terms of style (especially the men)...

 

it's not that's impossible to walk correctly at a certain pace, it's difficult...and the judges should be there to help the atheltes to stay fair (which normally it's not the case, like today with Kawano in the last km, when it was clear that he couldn't follow Stano but not even a couple of warnings kept him away from trying even if he was clearly breaking all the rules)...

 

of course, when you go faster than 4 mins per km, you're always on the edge (and over)...once again, it's the jury that should make it possible for the athletes to make the difference within the rules...

when they don't do it, you see a final 5 km stint faster than 20 mins, which is obviously possible only by being always borderline in terms of correctness of the action...

When I read this question, my mind initially and instinctively thought which one, Dvorák or Šebrle? :question:

Has any transgendered woman (or man for that matter) ever competed at worlds? Can’t even name a single relevant trans track and field athlete tbh.

 

DSD and trans issues get conflated quite a bit but women with DSD are very much cisgendered.

Should have said that when I still had the stream open, I was paying more attention to feet than names at some point :p 

 

Definitely not Stano, both Japanese guys and the Ecuadorian and Chinese guy.
