                            Slower of course but ridiculous to say slowly. Its certainly not easier. Ultimately they are in fact operating within defined rules and doing it as hard as they can.

                                      It's the butterfly of athletics.

                                      It is to running what handball is to basketball/football

                                      Handball is brilliant

                                      Sure. I love seeing school sports promoted to adult past times.

                                      Tbf Olympic handball in no way whatsoever resembles school handball.

                                        Nah. Defined sport with defined rules you play as hard as you can. Butterfly and race walking are both events where you're required to race slowly.

                                        Slower of course but ridiculous to say slowly. Its certainly not easier. Ultimately they are in fact operating within defined rules and doing it as hard as they can.

                                        Absolutely ridiculous. What next ? Combat sports where you can’t kick or grapple ?

                                          That was a great race to beat the Romanians.
