I have always been fascinated in the different ways that people move just watch all the variations that you will see in the way that people walk. How they hold themselves in their upper body, their balance and how their feet make contact with the ground. I think that you can sometimes tell a lot by watching people move particularly when it comes to sport. I used to coach football and could spot the more natural players very quickly by how coordinated they were and their balance and movement.
Its surprising how different runners of a similar build abd competing at the same distance will run in a very different way even at the top elite level. Just think of Michael Johnson in the 400 metres or Usain Bolt in the 100. Either athlete easy to spot by their unique running styles.

Tired. Have some shots to edit, but no drive to get them done.
So, I present you this image of Man running a red light on a warm summer eve.
Tastefully understated shorts that meet my demands for a running short that doesn't ride up. I've come to the conclusion that it is all in the size of the leg opening, and now have a handy test that I can use in a changing room to tell.
I met Jacques during a half marathon some 20 years ago
(picture above left)
He is living in Wallonia and I am living in Flanders,
but we ran a lot of races together.
Our friendship was based on running and having a beer.
Yesterday, I met Jacques during the "Wolf Trail" (picture right under).
He's 73 years old and unfortunately not running anymore due to some injuries ... but it was fun seeing him again after so many years.

The Blaydon Race is a 5.7 mile athletics race from Newcastle upon Tyne to Blaydon, in England, that is steeped in local tradition. It takes place on June 9th every year starting on Collingwood Street in Newcastle, heading west along Scotswood Road and finishing in Blaydon. The actual race was the inspiration for Dr James Dewar of Blaydon Harriers, who organised the first 24 races starting in 1981. In the early years, the race attracted around 250 entries and now attracts entries of 4000 plus

The Konik horse is a direct descendant of the now extinct European horse, the Tarpan. 250 Konik horses and an even larger herd of Highland cattle roam the National Park Lauwersmeer to keep the grass short and give plants, birds and insects the chance to settle. These animals are pretty wild and best watched from a respectful distance. Feeding and petting can interfere with their natural instincts.
Een konik is van oorsprong een in Polen en Wit-Rusland gehouden paardenras. Het konikpaard heeft geen verzorging nodig en kan het hele jaar vrij rondlopen. Om deze reden wordt het dier vaak ingezet voor begrazing in natuurgebieden in Nederland. De konik is nauw verwant aan de tarpan, een oorspronkelijk wild paard.
Gerben Poortinga introduceerde voor het eerst in 1981 de konik in het natuurbeheer. Poortinga eiste van de beheerders dat strikt natuurlijke kuddevorming, zonder "dierverzorgende" maatregelen, zou plaatsvinden en dat overbevolking uitsluitend aselect en op basis van ecologische ontwikkelingen van het gebied zouden plaatsvinden. Aan de kwaliteit van de konikspaarden op de Ennemaborg is dat nog steeds te zien. Naar aanleiding van het succes van de natuurontwikkeling op landgoed de Ennemaborg wordt het ras nu gebruikt in Europese natuurreservaten als de Oostvaardersplassen voor begrazingsdoeleinden. Hiermee functioneert de konik als een van de grote grazers van Europa. Ook in alle omringende landen is de beheersvisie nu op grote schaal overgenomen en toegepast. [Wikipedia]
