22:36 check out metal Sonic doing butterfly. A few interesting things about this: First, it is legal to do other strokes during an individual freestyle event. Second, butterfly is theoretically faster than freestyle at a robotic level. The problem with humans is stamina, strength, buoyancy, and the necessity of oxygen

[@MelloMathTeacher]

Just to set the record straight, EazySpeezy: Each time you're saying "splitscreen" during Marathon, the term you're looking for is *slipstream.* When you're moving right behind someone (or something) else, they have to push themselves through air that's rushing around them, and that pushed air will go right by you, so you don't have to expend as much energy. You know that mechanic in Mario Kart where if you hang out behind someone long enough you get a boost of speed? That's exactly the same thing. It's more commonly known as "drafting." You see it all the time in running races as well as automobile races, though with less exaggerated results than in video games.

"Of course we're gonna choose Sonic, because who else are you gonna choose for a race?" funnily enough, me and my sisters swear that Dr Eggman is the fastest character (at least in the 2008 wii game) to the point where we made a whole song about how fast he runs. it's called "Eggman is Running" and its a musical masterpiece

As a runner of 2020, I can say that Dr Eggman is slightly faster in 2020, though I personally choose Vector because his power move at the end gets quite the boost (personal best is 8.314)
