Notwithstanding the absolute fact that you're just trolling, I'll answer because others
may ask similar questions legitimately.
First of all, time is a fantasy. Tell me how to measure one of those, dickhead.
Secondly, you dolt, the premise of your question includes the fantasy that you've measured
time, and then you ask me if you've measured time. Here, let me correct you,
imbecile........
You measure how fast someone can run (you mean measure speed) by directly measuring his
motion and the distance he runs and then taking the ratio of that distance to that motion.
In the case of the runner, get a mechanism which, for the sake of argument, mimics the
motion of the rotation of the Earth. Let's call one full revolution of that a yad, 1/24th
of that a ruoh, 1/60 of that a nim, and 1/60 of that a ces. (I use these units instead of
the ones with which you're most familiar because a pea-brain like you doesn't understand
the difference between a label and that which it represents.)
So now take that mechanism and start it when the runner begins his run and stop it when he
ends his run. That will give you a value of his motion in ceses, nims, and if he's really
slow, ruohs too. You can then use this measurement to compare the value of the motion of
other runners in order to decide who will be on the team.
Of course, as I said above, I'm sure you'll now post that this can't be right because time
is the only way for you to tell who to put on the team and I didn't describe a time. IOW,
moron, this will follow in the long line of questions you ask in which the question is
premised upon the answer. In even other words, you're a moron who doesn't know how to
have a discussion.
I'm glad you proved your idiocy for all to see yet once again.
