Graphs on running tall people verses short people?

tall people would run faster because tall people can take bigger steps than short people. But it would also depend on their age. Even if you are shorter and younger you would run faster because even if an elderly but taller person were to run the shorter and younger person would have more energy to run which would cause the short person to win This isn't true. Shorter people tend do have a more compressed leg and therefor tend to have much more muscular legs and on top of that tend to have less weight and are able to make faster strides. This means short people can outrun taller people even with their extra leg length. You will find alot of runners arnt very all.

Are taller people faster than short people?

tall people have long legs so their legs carry them a longer distance in one step than a short persons step. i have been a twin all my life and my brother has longer legs than me and ive always been the slow runner not because im a girl but because im short. I think that short people run faster because the have more energy and tall people get tiered easly.And try not to give up on your self always try.
