http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marathon

Current marathon world record is 2h03:38, for 42195m that is an average of 20.5km/h.

My best time for 10km is 53min, which is about 11.3km/h, and I am not going anywhere after those 10km. I think I would not even be able to reach 20.5km/h at full sprint speed, let alone hold that speed for a long distance.

Marathoners have pretty much turned it into a complete sprint. It's absolutely crazy how fast they can get while running that distance. It's not even distance running anymore, try running 100 miles because that's more of a planned distance run that takes a ton of strategy.

Tender was jogging back to his goal. Gotta sprint bud.
That said, he starts back to his net @ :13 and the ball crosses the line @ :26. Not sure about this particular pitch, but estimate 100m length. Would need to be very fast indeed to make it back in time since he was right up at the opposing goal.


total field length is 100m

He didn't need to get back to the goal, just a few metres farther than the last defender was, which was doable.>> ^handmethekeysyou:

Kenya, 2004. Climbing to the top of a small mountain I never thought I was going to make it up. I sprinted the last 100 or so metres up to the summit through cloud forest and the trees opened up to the most amazing view. So exhilarating. That whole day was unreal. Ran down that mountain after our Masai guide, drank a cold Kenyan beer on top of a massive rock overlooking miles and miles of Acacia trees, catching the occasional fleeting glimpse of Elephants or Giraffe picking their way through as the sun set. I never thought the real Africa would live up to Africa I'd seen in nature documentaries...then it did.

Was your Anthropology class a graduate level class? Did you have to take five of them? If you want to compare the intro class you took to taking five classes, many of them graduate level, be my guest.

BTW, wtf does Anthropology have to do with astronomy? Are you seriously suggesting psychology has no relation to teaching? You do understand that in order to help teach, you should know how the human mind works, right? It's not the ESPN Decathlon jump where you're sprinting, and suddenly have to fish. You're argument is like saying a scientist doesn't know math well because they're a scientist. Uhh, math and science are heavily related.

Nobody said teachers are dedicated expert psychologists. But to pretend that a teacher doesn't need any or even just a cursory "Intro to Psych" level knowledge to teach is silly. I've taught, I have the degree, I've proven to you just how much psychology is involved in getting degree alone, nevermind what's involved in the actual job; you pretend the only thing in the coursework was an Intro to Psych class, and pretend you're an expert in what is involved in teaching because you went to school as a student. I guess I'm an expert in architecture because I've lived in buildings all my life. I also know all about what it must be like to be a professional cook, since I've eaten food all my life.

But I get it though, you're just trying to troll, not have an honest discussion.

He did claim the job is easy. I'm sorry, but that's what it implied.
He's not saying teacher's are all Einstein's. He's saying the swath of skill a teacher must possess is very wide, and it's not a cursory level of knowledge and skill. And his description is absolutely correct. He never said teachers are full time experts in every single one of those fields.
Before you say something idiotic like teachers don't need or are not required to have in depth knowledge of psychology, you could do a few common sense things like, oh I don't know, check college requirements for education degrees.
I must have imagined all those undergrad & graduate level psychology and education classes that were REQUIREMENTS to getting an education degree, which I had to have to get a teaching license! You know, classes that couldn't have a thing to do with psychology. Let's whip out that transcript and take a look:
101 Introduction to Psychology
300 Foundations of Education (heavy doses of educational psychology)
301 Human Development and Learning
607 (That's a graduate level class) Advanced Educational PSYCHOLOGY
605 Theory and Practice of Education/Special Needs Students
There were also Practicum classes with heavy doses of psychology.
Does your job require you to take five semesters of psychology in college to get licensed to do your job?
And that's my point with both of you. You have absolutely no clue whatsoever about the teaching profession, and yet you insist over and over and over you somehow do because you attended school. You clearly don't have a clue, so how about you go learn about these specific areas before you speak to them instead of trying to prove an ignorant point of view.


Ah, got it. So I guess the Anthropology course I took at my Liberal Arts school makes me a scientist. I'm also now qualified to operate the Hubble Telescope because I took a general studies course called 'Stars & Galaxies'.

Well, anyone who gets up from that deserves a toasty quality


and starts sprinting no less!

True story: in 2002, I purchased a pair of tiny clip-on condenser mics with a portable power supply for the purpose of capturing sound effects in NYC. I clipped these two mics to either side of a baseball cap I was wearing, making sure the distance from each other was the approx distance between my two ears (just like Empire said). So I walked from our hotel (the Millennium on 44th and B-way) all the way down to ground zero, recording all the while to a MiniDisc recorder. It was quite a haul.

On the way back, I walked through Washington Square Park, where I was approached by a drug dealer who could tell I didn't belong there. He said to me, "you buyin'?" I said, "no, not today. I'm working." Then he notices the mics clipped to my hat. They're small but they're not invisible. He gets this solemn look on his face and says, "You a cop?" I laughed and said "No, I'm recording sound effects." Then he gets genuinely worried, asking "You recording me right now?" I said simply, "I'm afraid so." He turned right around and walked away. Sprinted, more like.

Then I ducked into the nearby restroom to check to see if my MD was still going and, lo and behold...it had stopped: our encounter was not recorded. DAMN!

But I did get quite valuable street sounds: buses, cars, people shouting, talking, all the sounds you'd expect to hear in NYC. And it was all recorded using this method. The stereo playback sounds exactly as though you're there.

Sure those little pods can sprint, but they'd get pwned in an endurance competition.

Quantum mechanically, EVERYTHING is possible.

Tho which has a higher probability of occurring, Oh Queen Goddess of Tempered Reason & Logic:

1. Guy got spooked. Ran.

2. Cops felt empowered because they thought they were about to catch "a bad guy".
    (Cause.. only criminals run from police, you know)

3. They shot to wound him but killed him instead

4. They made up a story to cover their asses.

OR

1. Guy got spooked. Ran.

2. Shot backward at police.

3. From underneath his arm.

4. While running forward in a full sprint.

5. The momentum of his fall flung the gun (from underneath his arm) 15 feet away.

6a. The police saw this but failed to collect the evidence immediately.
(OR)
6b. The police never saw that the suspect was disarmed during the fall.

7. They waited 5 or 10 minutes before even approaching the body to locate the weapon.

8. Made no attempt to secure the area were the weapon was likely dropped by the suspect.

9. Let large crowds form and contaminate the scene even tho they knew the weapon was missing.

10. Days later they stumbled across video footage of the weapon being collected.

11. Found out who shot the video.

12. Found out who collected the weapon in the video.

13. Tracked that person down.

14. Retrieved the weapon without incidence.



>> ^bareboards2:

Anyway. I'm done with this.
You are going to believe what you want.
Not even a moment of doubt that that man was shooting while running?
No room for that possibility?

>> ^Xax:

Funny that the one guy jumps out of the window and then sprints off... "shit, I'm gonna be late for work!"


More like "shit, I'm going to be early for the fire!"

all what this video was missing is high intense chasing music...
