They look like they're trying to make it to the toilet before they have an accident.

sure it used to be just called the 50K walk. the fact they've felt the need to add race to the title tells you all you need to know. it hasn't worked btw

It looks absolutely brutal.

People staggering around half-unconscious
Others spreadeagled on the tarmac
(about half an hour ago a guy with paramedics all around him frantically feeling his pulse. Hope he's OKay?)

When you see it in slow motion they look like they're running.

So is it really fast walking or is slow running?

This Russian in the lead is not touching the ground at times. Surely he must be disqualified?

I bet over the finish line isn't going to be a pretty sight.
Plenty of medical staff needed

The most ludicrous event of the entire Olympics bar none. Even horses prancing around to 'The Great Escape' has greater dignity, gravitas and credibility than this.

Even the 'Madison' Cycling Event must be SEETHING that this nonsense still prevails.

I found it ludicrous someone took performance-enhancing drugs to do this.

Requires no skill level whatsoever just need hips like a spastic. I'm not fooled by all the collapses they have to do something to get people to watch the crap

If they can have the sprint starting blocks **** to record when runners lift early surely they can fit walkers shoes with something that fires a warning shot if both shoes are off the ground at the same time.  And if the kit weighs 10 kg I'm not worried. Mischief

I wish I could remember the work that gave the "****".  it wasn't rude, crude, or lewd.

Thing is it ain't even slow. Most people wouldn't run a marathon that quickly.

Slow mo on Eurosport in women's 20k clearly shows the two leaders off the ground. What a joke.

btw the men went through the marathon distance during the 50k in 3h03 - that's a good time for a run!

I could imagine you might end up needing hip replacement after doing too much of this.

It doesn't look like it's very good for you Confused

that chick that got disqualified in Sydney was commentating the mens race for aussie tv and there was a close up shot of the mens legs in slow mo and they were off the ground and she said it's a good thing the judges can't see this footage during the race.Crazy
