In reply to Rodger Kram. I noticed that one, also was wondering about that ATP weight measurement. Sad thing is even when fact checking is done things slip by.

at 3:22 stored “kinetic energy”?

should say stored elastic energy.

4:22, we cycle through 75kg of ATP?
I’d like to see how that was calculated.
Seems like a meaningless number since the mass of ATP = ADP + P.

a simple call to a local university might find an expert to fact check such things.

at 2:54 he states we hit the ground with EIGHT times our body weight (1400 pounds), they even made a graphic.

simply not true.

This is really good! We should show this to every person who asks you why you run, but your knees this and that, where is the fun and running is not good anyway.

that looks like Austin in the background at 3:18. Zilker Park, specifically.
