I love this video. Someone posted it on the elites with the worst running form thread on Letsrun recently. Shadow-boxing to victory!

Did he completely fall apart in the last few kilometers, or is that his normal form!?

That's a good question. I'll try to find some other videos. I know the guy who came in 5th in this race too, so next time I see him I'll ask if he noticed Ito's form when they were running together.

I went looking for videos earlier today. Unfortunately, it appears he shares a name with a movie star, so no luck.
