A 30-year-old Japanese sprinter,
Kenichi Ito, has just established a new world record of 17.47 seconds for the 100 meters. Click
here to admire a video of his performance.
In an Olympic context, if I had to choose between synchronized swimming and running on all fours, I wouldn't hesitate in preferring to watch the monkey business. In fact, when I observe some of the swimmers' contortions, I wonder whether some of these women might not be able to turn themselves into top-level monkey runners.
As far as exciting spectator sports go, I would even place monkey running ahead of curling.
There again, maybe there could be some sort of amalgam between the two sporting disciplines, by requiring curling competitors to slide around on the glass on all fours, in the style of seals, with their noses down at the level of the granite stone.
