i have a feeling he can go alot faster than that like maybe sub 45 but prolly he won’t for fear of the able-bodied opinions
he prob holding out till the olympics then he’ll run like 39. wouldn’t that be a bitch?
It looks to me that he was well behind coming into the home stretch. Was it lack of trying before hand, good conditioning, good strategy or do those things weigh next to nothing?
let em compete
I was wondering about that race distribution as well if it in fact was that. Looked very “Marc Raquil Like” of him.
thats amazing!
yeah i agree, until he run like a sub 42 second… hell let him play the game!!!
With his “prostetic limbs”… isnt this just “one less/a few less” muscles that he has to worry about fatiguing as well as less muscle that is being recruited meaning less of a hit to his CNS?
but it also means less blood, it also means that the other muscles have to work far harder. I mean be serious if you think that those plastic legs give him an advantage, you gotta be…well let me not say. I mean just look at the other paralegic athlets, do they run as fast? no he’s just got a God given gift.
How many paraplegic athletes with real ability do you think have ever used good quality prosthetics? Those things Pistorius us wearing cost more then 10,000 Euros each. I doubt if 100 athletes in the whole world have had access to them. When we get a bigger sample we will be able to really judge how good this guy is. For the moment my bet is he gets some type of advantage from them.
Agreed. Look at his home stretch, he’s accelerating!
