Can you please show us what connects your data to being a success as an endurance hunter? Because “men hold more records running a specific distance faster than women do” is not in any way an indication of hunting success.
Do you think Olympic target shooters make the best hunters when it comes to guns and bows?
Another factor is, with endurance hunting, you will need to carry the carcass back to home base. So let’s take am antelope, which weighs 125 kg. You need the hunters to bring that all back to base, AFTER the multi kilometer hunt is over.
I just looked at the measured data and came to a conclusion. I don’t even know what conclusion you’re trying to communicate, but it beats me…
I explained why that data does not contradict what the previous commenter was trying to say.
I was asking the commenter to explain what a ‘better’ runner is supposed to mean? And tou perhaps was answering something else…
Better doesn’t always equal faster.
Better can equal going further.
Better can equal being more efficient.
Efficient means using less calories to do the same thing.
Sure. But you then need to show the data that supports those points

However, as far as portaging, women are very adept at that: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head-carrying
Olympic shooters would make the absolute worst hunters, have you actually seen them shoot? It’s a test of hand eye coordination to hit a paper target.
I never said anything about exactly what makes a good hunter. I was making a counterpoint to the quote of the article
Maybe a better runner uses calories more efficiently.
