Best Answer

Very light frame

Long back legs

Powerful thigh muscles

I think their backbone is very flexible to, allowing it to arch further than normal, so they can get their back legs quite far forwards, giving them a large range of motion for which to push themselves forward on.

They also have small paws to run quickly and a bigger nose to inhale better.
