Aquí fue la retirada del gran maestro Jefferson Pérez...lamentablemente compitió junto a un ruso dopado, y aún así le costó una enormidad ganarle a Jefferson...el ruso actúo sucio y privó a un pueblo nuevamente de celebrar una medalla de oro junto a su gran héroe. Años después se le sancionó y se le dio la medalla de oro a Pérez, pero ya no tenia el mismo significado que recibir la medalla en el mismo torneo cantando el himno de su país. De todas maneras su segundo lugar de ese entonces valió mucho más que el oro del ruso al colocar termino a una exitosa carrera atletica. Creo que tiempo después, se despidió definitivamente en un campeonato menor.

Grande Jefferson!! Grande Ecuador 🇪🇨

Jefferson Perez was so disappointed.

Jefferson Perez!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is hands down the funniest thing I've ever seen in my life

when u realize the winner just WALKED 12.4 miles at a 6:21 pace per mile... literally most people in the world can't RUN half a mile at that pace wtf lol

They should've awarded Perez the gold medal, since later on it was proven that Valeriy Borchin was doped/drugged and that's why he won

People might make fun of this, but it is amazing how much they have to pay attention to their form for such a long time.

because it's not the least bit impressive to be the worlds fastest walker, cause you could still be faster if you just jogged lol...of all things to be good at in life, this has got to be the worst

+Dan Why run when driving a car is faster? Why drive a car when flying an airplane is faster? By your logic, the only acceptable type of race would be with spaceships.

+muhammad40000 Fine then. I'll use a different example. By his logic, the only race in swimming should be the front crawl stroke, since it is the fastest stroke, and no matter what stroke you do in a race, you could do a front crawl faster. But if that ever happened, most swimming competitions would be removed, even though all strokes can have exciting races. We shouldn't just remove competitions simply because some people perceive a "lack of efficiency."

Walk Forest Walk!

one,wrestling is televised and if not for you watch it online. two, what makes this sport so strenuous is the hp movement. remember, they do this specific kind of walk for 20K or more.

these guys are amazing, they walk way faster than I run 20km

That's gotta have some long tern negative effects

When are people going to stop making fun of this sport? sigh..

these ppl train JUST as HARD as the other athelets .... very inspiring this shows everyone can compete at something

@flame123652 thats like asking, "why doesnt a shot putter take up pole vaulting?" running and race walking are different sports entirely. they want to be race walkers because they are good at it. theres much more stamina/technique involved.

Wrestling is gone and this bullshit remains...

Wrestling is still in the Olympics.

Zeale23 is correct. The world record for 20km is 1h 17m 16s, giving an average speed of 9.65 mph.  The 50km record is 3h 34m 13s, giving 8.70 mph.

Y'all are criticizing this event but how about you go try RUNNING 20km (12.4 miles) in that time. I'm an NCAA athlete and that is not just a "walk in the park"

Esta medalla es de Oro 🏆 para Ecuador por que el Ruso estaba consumiendo sustancias prohibidas y los, Rusos fueron sacados de por vida, de los juegos grande Jefferson grande Ecuador

They're basically jogging 20km without stopping is ridiculously hard.

this is freakin harder than it seems!!! we had to do it in gym. a mile under 14 min!!!

im sorry but how is this a sport?

Im a marathon runner, and I run 85 miles a week. Ill say this looks insainely hard. I might try it out sometime....

the ace venturathon, lol I love it

Este es el ruso q estaba dopado raron q le gano

medalla de oro para ECUADOR le quitan al ruso la medalla de oro

one of them is like screw it and starts jogging

"gotta poop, gotta poop, gotta poop, gotta poop" running will let it out

Where are the walkers?

La carrera completa suban por favor

Why do their heads bob back and forth too?

they look like theyre basically running....and how the hell does one train or get in to such an event...

why not?

Where is full video ??

NARDO PEREZ BI CAMPEON OLIMPICO....

ya im thinking about retiring from walking

which is*

how the fuck would u check whose cheating

lmao that's the weirdest thing i ever saw :/ I can't believe this is an olympic sport

Borchin = dopping

Walk faster! This is the most legitimate sport in the Olympics but you can't say that about wrestling now can yah! LOL WTF

yeah, but what's amazing is, they're just about 20 minutes slower than the elite half-marathon (21K) runners where they run with long, quick and fast strides the entire race. only God knows why....

i would go if my friend or family member was in it lol

Well, joining this sport is one way to come out of the closet.

This sport was part of the ancient olympic games, in ancient Greek, when Jesus hadn't be born yet, so shut the fuck up

what kind of catwalk is this

I can't help but laugh at this being an Olympic sport.

looks very hard on the body...awkward....likely causes hip/back injuries

why not just do running

the greatest sport ever........ for me to poop on

Swimming has some weird strokes like the butterfly and breaststroke that force a swimmer to go not as fast doing an unnatural, but strictly enforced, movement. That's what this is to foot racing, but I'd rather see a walking backwards race.

noooo... you are NOT about to make this ok.... would u go to a "racewalk" ? lol

LOL

Gotta poop!

lol

Seems funny ;)

A mile in less than 14 minutes? Aww, that's adorable.

you know why? cuz he's upset with his life, he asking himself why am i in this dumb sport

IS this really a fucking sport ??????? Really

@flame123652 there are africans that do this sport, but not many. its a choice, and clearly they prefer to be runners. if you knew anything about this sport you'd realise that it is completely different to running. there are rules of technique you have to stick to or you get disqualified, there is nothing like that in running, its simply, "run as fast as you can". walking is like running, with the stamina element but requires much more discipline.

Russian cheater!
