Deathmarch starts today!

Deathmarch starts today!

>20km

This is just the prelude. The true sacrifices will race next week.

>20km

It's in the midday heat though

I'll still watch it. I just don't expect it to be like the 50km walk.

Japan absolutely crushing the 20km death march this year lads.

>20km

This is just a warm up for the proper death march next week.

>20km
The real breakdown begins at the 35km mark

Why no 100 meter race walk? Or 4x400 meter race walk? Or race walking hurdles?
The runners get all kinds of events, why not the walkers as well?

it's winter in brazil apparently so it may not be that hot

>race walking hurdles
since they can't take two feet off the ground they'd have to limbo under them

brilliant

somebody make it happen

They could slowly raise one leg over and have to plant it on the other side before moving the other leg. Imagine the falls

armenia must kick ass at this

It wasn't that hot in London either. Low 70s. Same as tomorrow. Hopefully it warms up for next week's real death match. That ones in the early morning though

and place the hurdles near the finish when the walkers' legs are close to jelly
more trouble getting up, maybe even cramps

They shit the bed in big events though

They've never experienced the Brazilian sun

Why is it called death March?

>20km
ill still watch it tho

...

>TOP CHEN

what does his shirt mean by this?

Sacrificing your soul for your country.
