Why are most the top French runners from North Africa?
because algeria was a french colony
Do you mean french speaking? Because last time i checked the best French runner was born in Strassborg...
Yes of course Algeria was a french colonie and many other countries as well(Moroco, Guadaloupe etc).
France has immigrants from every where, so why are many of thier top distance runners from North Africa (by heritage).
Is thier a cultural tradition in France for North Africans to participate in Track? A coach who recruits from Algeria,Moroco, Tunisia etc?
yeah, baala is from strasbourg.
north africans and other immigrant groups doing well in french sports as they gotta run from the racist popo (or gendarmes).
have you ever seen marseilles or east paris?? ghetto.
not only are they good at running, but there are better opprotunities on the track, as the clock doesn't discriminate.
also the french are too busy smoking to train. serious. also it might interfere their two hour lunch.
