Run underwater in any depth water, without carrying stones! (No weights or other equipment required.)

This video was shot in shallow water so that the technique is visible.

The author invented Underwater Running (without weights) on the North Coast of NSW, Australia in the 1980s.

Underwater running (without weights) is a young discipline open to participants of all ages and capacity. How fast are you over the 20m?


How does it work?
The forward movement of the runner is due to the pushing off by the feet on the bottom, that is running. With the runner's head down, the forward motion generates downward force that keeps the feet in contact with the bottom. The hands also assist generating some downward force.
