Topic	Aren't runners on the inside of a racetrack subject to more angular momentum?
Robot2600 08/02/21 2:13:31 PM #17:	Were_Wyrm posted... For me it was only really a problem in indoor track, where the track is 200m instead of 400m, that and being 6'5" didn't help much. It's more of a disadvantage for taller runners, and depending on the race the shorter distance makes up for the tighter turn. This is what most people said: it's more of a problem on indoor tracks. But even though it doesn't feel as bad on outdoor, it's still a disadvantage because you have to turn sharper and your inertia wants you to go straight. --- Marvel presents Marvel Marvel's The Marvels <cite>Robot2600 posted [p:956704871] in Aren't run...
