I would thoroughly enjoy if the top 10 runners had cameras on them... Especially the crazy starts.. Would make great viewing!

It would be pretty choppy. I would like to see a go pro on a turtle.
you would need red bull to sponsor the event for that

Good idea- like when they go "on board" in an F1 car race.

I personally don't like the fish-eye lens view of the gopro. unfortunately that's necessary if your camera is short. You need a longer lens assembly for more normal viewing, so the camera has to be longer and that makes it less portable. Drift Innovation and Contour make better cameras in that regard but then chest mounting becomes impractical. There are some cameras coming out now that mount on your ear on the side of your head. I can see having a couple of those and making cool fully immersive 3d video.
Speaking of gopro have you seen the camera arrays people are making now. crazy.

I see the stabilizator youtube have does a great job combined with head mount.
Really interesting way to see a race, would be awesome with a rabbit wearing this only having the camera on the back of his head facing the runners.
Comment on race:
Why the heck are you talking about how much you hate the race right after passing the line? If you give it your all you can't talk after an 800m...
"man that was retarded"
How so?
That's not that exciting to me... maybe if every runner had them, but the same view of the backs of the other runners when it's slow static shot like that, nah I'll pass, you can get a better shot from a golf cart

Imagine if the rabbit was wearing one....and had it backward
You young kids think technology is new and exciting. That's been done.
