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.
In most cases yes, Chris Paul could probably out run Yao Ming because he does not have the body of a runner, mostly power. Paul has most speed for his light body and point guards have to be fast.
To me i don't think taller people run faster than shorter people because some tall people arent even fast. plus that's like saying people with long legs are faster tham people with short. some people with long legs arent even fast yes they have an advantage but you shouldn't just someone on how they look. just cayse they have long legs does not mean that they are fast.
Just because someone is taller, doesn't necessarily mean that they are faster than someone who is shorter. Being taller just means that their legs are longer, therefore, so is their stride, and the longer the stride, more distance is covered in a shorter time. But if you are shorter you can still be faster. If you can fit 5 strides in per second, you can cover more distance than a taller person with a little longer stride that can do 3 strides in a second. It also depends on your natural speed, flexibility, and potential. Everything ties in to how fast you run, being taller just makes running a little easier.
