No, they are not more athletics than runners.
I beg to differ. If you looked at their body shapes and their perfectly sculpted pectorals and well-defined biceps I think you would change your mind. These monsters are almost perfect physical specimens from a physical shape point of view.
You put them (World class Walkers), on the beach with marathon runners and who would the women flock to? They would all run towards the world-class walkers who have such quasi perfect physical shapes. Most of the marathon runners would be ignored because of their mostly shapeless skinny bodies.
Why such hatred for world-class walkers? It boggles the mind. They are magnificent physical specimens.
