Don’t you have massive strides? I feel like people over 6’2 can’t complain about others being slow 😂

are taller people really faster walkers? I've found that there's not much of a correlation

Are you sure? I’ve always thought tall = long strides = cover more ground… granted, I’m about 5’5 and hard to keep up with.

yeah so that’s one side of the tradeoff

but I think people with short legs have faster stride speeds

my theory is that the legs are lighter and thus easier to move

taller people are generally better sprinters, but that advantage goes away for longer distances… I think it boils down to stride speeds / efficiency

This is basically true, but i think more of a habit than a fact of nature
