the atlanta olympics figured it out, "SPEED" sells! the sprinters like the hard track and distance guys hated.

So pretty much exactly like the race track :p Thanks

He just ran 19.19 into a slight headwind. Yikes.

Heels1989 08-20-2009 01:56 PM

that dude is SICK!!! :tro:

King Glorious 08-20-2009 01:56 PM

My God. What if his coach is right and the 400 would be his best event?

SniperSB23 08-21-2009 12:14 AM

He needs to work on the turn. To break 19 would be one of those records that would never be broken.

sickest track man the world has ever seen! it's hard to imagine, Bolt is .70 better than the rest of that field!
he has a little bit left, don't know he can break 19. i do think he can get he can get under 19.1 though. his problem now, NO one is close enough to push him. IMO, the 200m is his best race.

I thought Bolt runs third and Powell runs the anchor. That's what they did before when they set the world record.

they had Bolt listed as anchor but he ran third leg.

closing day live 2-4pm, re-run at 8-pm on versus.
4x400m relays. both men and women qualified for finals. women looked REALLY sharp.

ddthetide 08-23-2009 02:55 PM

4x400 relays, women won by almost 4 seconds, men won by almost 3 seconds. the guys have only lost this race twice in history.
USA won the medal count.
