l think it does. When l was in high school, the guys completely shaved their head and legs because they said it can shave off seconds.

depends on who you are in the pic. if you're the guy you should get your haircut anyway.

No, hair does not slow you down unless you have long dreads. It looks cute but if he really wants you to cut it, just do it. You do not have to cut all of it off, just enough.

Long hair causes air drag & it does slow u down a little (that is why competitive swimmers shave off their body hair) & it changes the mechanics of the way u run. The bouncing of longer hair sometimes throws off a runner is sense of timing.

As a runner, the length of ur hair in the pic wo not cause excessive air drag & cutting an inch off ur back wo not help that much. On the other hand, we saw in the Olympics that races can be won & lost by just a fraction of a second because someone had a slight advantage.

l dont think so. there are plenty of elite high school runners with long hair.

No having long hair does not slow you down, l cannot believe you were told that--that is really dumb. Seriously-you got good hair I'd keep it!
