The sport with the most cheating of any in the world. That is why the communists are really good at it.

It’s going as fast as you possibly can while always maintaining foot contact to the ground

This in a nutshell. Before a race walker can take his/her trailing foot off the ground, their lead foot has to have made contact with the ground.
Kind of like the race horse equivalent of harness racing where the horses can't break into a gallop and have to maintain a trot type pace.

Going for the downvote record I see
Race Walking is the only real sport in these games. The rest are just obscure hobbies for private school girls

It’s when the blacks and the whites and the browns and the yellows and the reds all walk together…oh…
There’s a great Malcolm in the Middle episode about Hal and speedwalking. Way more enjoyable than watching competitive race walking.

It is when three work crews pull up to the jobsite in the morning and there is only one port-a-potty.

If it has a line, it's a sport.
In the racing form, take some who has training times from the mall.

She absolutely could not get it. 10 minutes in I figured out that she didn’t know that when people run or jog they spend time with both feet off the ground. Had to show her a picture to convince her. Idk how people can be so dumb

When she got up to use the restroom she race walked through the restaurant with completely straight legs

I think one of the legs has to be straight as well

I turned on the race and they zoomed in on a guy who was CLEARLY taking both feet off the ground.
Here he is again. Yellow sneakers.
