Actually, the ability to run depends on the leg muscles. People with shorter leg muscles (not necessarily the length of the leg itself) have a far greater take-off speed and fare better at short distances doing sprints. Their muscle endurance is very limited.

The long muscled legs tend to provide long distance endurance. They are not very fast at the beginning of a race, but their endurance is far superior.

So, it's not the race of the person, entirely, but the muscle structure of their legs that matter.
