He is amazing. Racewalking is a great way to exercise outdoors and not get as beat up as when running. I ran for 49 years and wore out the cartilage in my right hip. I couldn't run any longer, but when the gym shut down during Covid, all I could do is walk. I got faster and faster, attended a racewalking clinic, and this is what I do now. You get 1/3 of the musculoskeletal shock in racewalking versus running. It's far more difficult than running. I'm a good minute per mile faster when my technique is good than when it isn't. My form is not bad, but someone who can racewalk really fast is truly an amazing athlete. If you're a racewalker, you'll probably be the only one in your neighborhood. You get noticed; in a good way.

I've never seriously considered race walking before watching your videos. Thanks for sharing these! RW would be a great addition to my cardio routine.

That's awesome! It's definitely a really good complement for doing cardio. It's very tough

I wanted to incorporate drills into my practice. I want to know how to warm up before a game or practice！！

Great! Drills are really good to get more efficient and improve the technique. I will try to make a video where I show my warm up routines!
