Hi Ken,

Glad you posted on this -- had hoped you would. As you say there are factors to be realized when generalizations are made! One interesting one is that if one takes the fastest African heritage sprinter (except that wonderkund bolt) vs the best European heritage sprinter the time difference? is 2%? Not much really when one realizes how inferior some of these statistics makes certain members of other heritages feel!

PS A good article on the matter: Google

From Race and Sport:


"The concept of race has become meaningful only as a broad sociological
concept. This is not to say that genetic makeup is unimportant as a basis for
athletic excellence. This also does not infer that groups of people
distributed around the world do not have advantages in certain athletic
endeavors, as environment, culture, and heredity may be advantageous, in certain
instances, for producing individuals with optimal height, weight, muscle
structure, and temperament for excelling in a particular activity (e.g., Kenyans
and distance running or Norwegians and cross-country skiing). The point,
however, is that such groupings do not represent what is traditionally
believed to be racial groups.
It can be argued that even when certain groups of people scattered around
the world do have predisposing advantages for excelling in particular
activities, individuals who reach world class levels represent the extremes
within group distributions rather than its central tendency. This probably
distorts general perceptions of a group's attributes and makes differences
appear greater than they actually are."
