You've an amazingly low threshold of interest

Very entertaining. Reminds me of Cliff Young an Australian potato farmer who won the inaugural. Melbourne to Sydney ultra marathon of 875 kilometres. Cliff who was 61 back in 1984 ran in his work overalls and boots, minus his dentures, was trailing badly at the end of the first day. While all the other competitors settled down for 6 hours sleep, Cliff didn't. He ended up winning by 10 hours. Cliff hadn't realised there was prize money ($10,000) and felt bad for the other 5 who had completed the race and split the prize money between them, keeping none for himself. He became an overnight celebrity. The next year at 62 years old he married a 23 year old woman in a big ceremony held at a huge shopping complex. Prior to the marriage he was still living with his mother. Sorry, went off thoughty2 subject matter, but I thought it was a good story that maybe someone in the world might like

"Most of the best books haven't been written yet." "Stick a Flag In It" is on the book shelf.

I took apart in a couple of walking contest when i was a kid and it’s not easy! Keep in mind you’re not walking to the supermarket for shopping or doing an hour treadmill at the gym. you have to maintain an intense walk for several miles beside other competitors and referees.

Not only do I walk for recreation, but I live in a rather small town, so I walk whilst running errands. I can't even begin to count the number of times that people in cars have offered to give me a ride. While I appreciate the sincerity of their offers, it makes me feel l a little sad that walking is looked upon as something that is not a valid mode of transportation anymore. I honestly don't think that people realize just how much they are missing out on...

You have one of the more interesting channels in youtube my friend! Keep it up!

Love all your videos but this one is definitely one of my favorites so far! So very well done, and a subject I didn’t know exists! Brilliant work!

There's some kind of pedestrianism where I live. A few dutch towns and cities around where I live are called "De Langstraat" and they made the event "De 80 van de langstraat" (The 80 of the Langstraat) where people walk 80km (a little under 50 miles) in one go, you start at 8pm and the last person has to finish at 4pm the following day, if you finish after that you're disqualified. I've partaken in this challenge once and failed (Got to 46 miles tho) but I was 16 back then, I'm almost turning 20 so I'm getting ready to challenge my body once more when the whole pandemic is over, to see if my mind is capable of doing it this time. I highly encourage people to just take a bit of time to challenge themselves to do this. I've learned a lot about my body and mind while training for this challenge, and I've had a lot of fun actually doing it.

Me: *thinking Thoughty2 was going to give an actual Australian example* Thoughty2: ‘About the length from your house to your neighbours house.’ Me:

Legitimately gasped out loud when you said Edward Weston was killed by a car. That’s so awful honestly. I have also been hit by a car in a crosswalk but thankfully survived. That car also failed to yield to a pedestrian. I am just imagining the fear he must have felt seeing this giant unfamiliar machine coming at him and realizing it was going to hit him, and it just breaks my heart to know it was while he was doing his favorite sport that he had been doing for decades before cars were even a problem. That just feels like such a cruel ending. :( On a lighter note though I cracked up laughing when you said Abraham Lincoln himself came out to greet him. For some reason the mental image of that is just hilarious to me.

This cheered up my Monday , your channel is the best thing I found this year ❤️😃❤️

Your channel is so informative. big thanks to you

I've heard jokes about walking being a spectator sport, but I'm so happy to finally see a video going in depth into it.

Does anyone know why most of the pedestrians shown had some small object in their hand? Were these used as a tool for establishing and maintaining balance when the pedestrian grew tired? (Weston holds something similar to a razor, and Anderson holds what appears to be a bow without the string).

@paulesterline5714

Since no one else has given you even a guess to this good question, I will give you one. It is only a guess. You said one looked like a Razor, well from the sound of it you might want something to fend off someone trying to change the outcome. A Razor, or knife is small but effective and never needs reloading. I hike a fair amount and find a walking stick to be very useful. It helps keep your balance, has literally stopped me from falling after triping on something. It is helpful in climbing up a hill or stepping up onto a rock, you can literally pull yourself up with it. Some people like a longer one, others like a shorter one. Beyond my suggestions here I don't have an answer for you. Hope this either helps or gets you thinking how the item they carry might be useful.

Why are you talking about comments?

I was a member of the Shore AC in NJ, the premier N.J. Athletic Club. Elliot Denman was a our president and a 1956 Race Walking Olympian. I competed in many races including the London to Brighton Walk, which I failed to finish, but did manage about 22 mile, paltry but I was new to the sport at the time. It's still a popular and demanding sport with, as you so eloquently show, quite an interesting past. I have known many RW competitors and champions and they are as dedicated and gifted as any athletes in the world, and in fact , the sport is far from extinct. Cheers, Frederick "Rik" Spector

Yes I read about the Regents walking and fighting in the biography of Captain Barclay Alardyce. A brilliant read indeed.
